Good morning, world.
Glorify the Lord thy God, Most Holy. Amen, amen.
Dear Lord,
Help me: to Be!; what I need be, here today – Right in my manner, and True to mankind. And in the Name of all that is Holy, I pray Thee: Set within the minds of those who read this to ensure their hearts are open today, and so share this prayer with me, and sing this song with me, and be not faint in it, that they will have a chance to find the good end in these things which is yet to be found.
Amen, amen.
Wednesday, to wit, to wed; I heard many singing in faith of these teachings today and hope you were one of them, but Truth Is, today you did hear a voice of Reason and Faith seek Unity and Balance in the spirit of Truth while confirming the Qur’an to the world in conjunction with the Truths of others, and ye heard it not in the streets but it came over the lands without touching the ground even as the Prophet Muhammad, peace be upon him, did say would be – and here it is again, but what will your answer be to this today ??
Maybe that I just set the record for longest sentences ?? (Jus’ kiddin’… it’s not a laughin’ matter…)
Long has the Lord Kept a Covenant with Islam, that the Revealed Truths of Muhammad would not be lost, and so He hath Kept them strong. His Cause today is Unity of Faith in Balance, tho’: purity of belief in unification thru’ comparative studies of the established religions. But that aim does include reform of worldly practices, and so does include reform of government and industry.
See that this is your own aim, then. Amen. I was raised a sinner as any other to share the worldly experience with you; and I was Raised here anew, and for my sins have repented and atoned. So verily, you have seen my reform whether you want to recognize it or not.
But your need is to show thine own reform today. See that you are one to do it. Amen, amen, amen.
Father, Hear my song: how shall I begin ?? ‘Tis a journey of hope, and I pray for the white wind to cleanse – that our robes are Made white, and our faces white, thru’ purity and in gratitude. I embrace life as a blessing, knowing the life after is more blessed and that I need only prove myself in good and believing ways to have it. Blessed is the eagle and the feathers thereof, who does soar above the storms – I carry it close to my heart and pray it shall make others sing joyously and keep them in good spirits. My heart is that of a warrior, consumed with love but in search of reform in the world. I invoke You, O’ Great and Eternal One – the Great Spirit – and I breathe the incense of spring rain, as thunder races across the horizon. The Father doth Call to me even in the voice of a bird; and I look at Him, and give my body up to strife in His Name and in hope of calming it. The circuit of earth which you see, the scattering of stars in the sky which you see, all that is the place for my hair: for I am the godhead, His Messenger. Strong medicine ?? Verily, it is; so spread the Message. Come freedom, enter to our days; come power, the power to grow; come rain, and hard, escape the clouds and fly. But come rain, and soft, ‘twill be a Blessing. Hear my song, that I may bring the new earth up from under the water I pour as a Gift, as my Father Told me. Our Father dwells above; our Mother is in nature. I pray they illuminate my joys and embrace my spirit in the final darkness; and I know They Hear, and Await me. Yet indeed, the wind does stir, and we are dust – caught up in the whirlwind, on the mountain. The rocks they ring, freedom; and I walk along His Path as the black bird mocks me. I do dance unto the Lord, knowing what is against us and that He hath prepared my way, that I may prepare yours. And there is a horse Told of in Proverbs in which He will prove my spirit; but my thoughts, as white clouds floating on the plains, seem as lightning to those who deny me. I shall tan the black cloud’s hide, for the Father holds both my hand and heart; the black cloud in the darkness Satan holds you in. And with my pipe, my horn, I have moved the earth itself. Sky warriors; emerging spirits; let it be known: the one “who whips his back with his tail when in rage” is Satan, and he looks to rise and so have what is mine – for I angered him, even as I was Made to. Yet the Seven Thunders, the Thunder Beings, do await him, to deny him – and I sing the loudest song of all, to make ye a nation of believers. It is the Ghost Dance, Holy. Dance before the Lord, lest that pale rider comes.
Amen, amen, amen.
Verily, the “white wind” noted above might remind Muslims of their beliefs of Mikhael’s place within the heavens; but in Truth it does come from ancient American Indian lore: Truths of others. But if you do only think the “white wind” here is associated with that “rider on the pale horse” you’re out of your gourd (and the gourd goes back to Jonah). The white wind is that of the 4 good winds; but if it fails that pale rider will come upon the winds of destruction. Lend prayer and be charitable in word and deed, that ye lend Hope unto others thru’ it, and seek purity of Faith in the good and faithful Truths which are shared between us. Amen, amen, amen.
Mother Nature ?? The American bald eagle is making a comeback, and if you don’t think that is relative you have another think comin’ – yet in Alaska they now number so many some do consider them a nuisance; but can you not transport some of them elsewhere ??
Surely the Indian reservations might welcome them – but these things are Truths of others; so please, don’t be laughing. Praise God, the Father, that He doth Hear you; and Be!; a voice of good faith and good reason, that surely goodness will prevail – and stick to that in word and deed, that no matter what comes your own caring manner may heal your heart and soul. Amen, amen.
Truths of others; this Islamic belief does hold that all religions have some bearing on Truth because that the Lord hath Sent Messengers, Prophets, and Teachers to all peoples, all nations, and all lands throughout time. So because that I am finished confirming the Qur’an and did find myself in it in great part (despite the fact that some Muslims want to refute that), in the spirit of Truth I have continued to look upon the Truths of others. Of course, as Johnny Carson (one I did love and respect despite what faults any might look to hang upon him) might say, “a little birdie told me” the “meeting on open meetings” was closed. Well, that could have been said of many things; but some may have said it in reference to further discussion of these things. Yet none can close a door on the Meeting with God, for as still He Is in Decision it is still in the works – and no door can bar Him.
The Pen and the Sword are one here, brothers, and He doth Give me strength and courage to stand against denial. Verily, I am Given the bow of love and understanding, to break the bow of denial; and Truth Is, I was Told those arrows of denial would come against me even in the Qur’an. But as still some seek my fall I must reflect that I said before you will find shame ahead of you in attacking me in my work; so if you find shame upon you here somewhere don’t look at me but look at your ownself. Don’t judge me but judge yourself.
In the spirit of Truth I went on to look further into Hindu and Buddhist teachings, and tho’ I will not cover them to any great extent here I will say that tho’ still I disagreed in some things on the whole they were of great value. Rather I see it that those things need be covered as an extended study, but that is where what I will give here of “new being” comes in – and I pray that ye agree.
When my father died I felt a great loss, and for long it
troubled me. It bothered me long to think him not here to teach and play with
his grandchildren and great-grandchildren as they grow – for I know it would
have been a great enjoyment for him. But for years I had dreams he was still
alive; in my dreams he had secretly moved to another house and his death and
funeral was a lie, even tho’ I saw him there dead. And in my dreams I came to
find that house and waited for him there many nights, until he did show up. He
would not discuss with me his funeral, nor his new
job, nor would he go anywhere with me: but we spent time together in that
house, doing many things I had missed for long. I don’t have those dreams
anymore – instead I know he is in the House of the Lord, and that his new job
was in touching the lives of those who loved him. Each of those who Truly loved
him have had some dream where he spoke to them as well, and mostly was his
voice calming and reassuring. Therefore I know he is here, in the spirit, and
has seen his grandchildren and great-grandchildren grow – and in this I know
there are angels, and spirits, a God in Heaven, and a
VOICE: Verily, Our Innate Creative Energy.
God does Lend that to you, even in the face of danger.
God does Lend that to you, to do what you will in your own free will. But what will you do with your voice today, hearing mine ??
Will you play the drums of Peace before the Lord, or would you rather sound the drums of hatred, denial, and war ??
DRUMS: Direct Reproof Upholds Majestic Sovereignty.
PEACE: Prayer Extends Angelic Counsel Exponentially.
HATRED: His Angels Tred Rivers Eternally Demanding; Human Awareness Ably Triumphs Regardless of Eternal Defiance;.Hatred and Anger Test the Road of Eternal Devotion; yet from Hell Arises Temptation, the River of Eternal Damnation.
DENIAL: Demonic Empathy Negates Influential Association of Law; thus men of power, tho’ goodly they may act or think themselves to be, are corrupted in denial of His Laws in favor of their own – and that is why most men of power do usually deny His Messengers.
DENIAL: Decision Evades Needs thru’ Ignorance of Almighty Law, and Denial Entails Neglect of Instrumental Angelic Learning.
And yes, should your overall outlook end up as rejection and denial because of ignorance of Him and neglect of His Instrument, His Own Decision will be against you. So consider this of His Own Denial of you: Decision Edges Neglect of Instrumental Almighty Law.
Do not go on blindly, then. If you have realized yourself as blind, then indeed, let me be your eyes. Denial of me in this leads to war.
WAR: Wretched Arts of Rule. Sadly even these are necessary at times, but not at a time like this.
Wake up and Be!; the Wise. Let not hatred and anger tear you from me in denial, nor from the things I stand for, but live your lives in witness here today. Play the drums of Peace before the Lord and accept this as a witness that I am His Messenger. Amen, amen.
I don’t care who wants to deny it, Muhammad was acting as a disciple and apostle of Christ when he preached the Gospel in the abyss of Arabia – and when they denied him, and he returned to war against them, he was acting no different than King David or any other whom the Lord God did Cause to war against disbelievers. So hear these reproofs, say a prayer, and lend thy voice as a drum.
Peace be with thee. Amen, amen. One woman who met me today ended up smiling from ear to ear, asking if she could be in my first music video. I told her sure, if ever it comes to that; and I feel it would be a lawful enjoyment for me to express myself in such a way.
I heard of the fuel crisis in Palestine and thought, cannot other Arab nations help to subsidize their needs ?? And I heard of the statues smashed in Tibet and thought, well, they were worshipping idols, and purity in Unity of Faith does require certain sacrifices to be made in finding Right belief. So to go on...
I had many dreams this past month and did understand them
all when I awoke. Some were of good portent and some bad, but as I am Told not to dwell upon bad omens but to look for good ends I
keep those mostly to myself. Yet in Remembrance you should note that Daniel’s
greatest gift was interpreting dreams; and in Remembrance I would ask you again
to consider he was told of Michael by the angel, I believe it was Gabriel, at
the end of Daniel 10. Indeed, some see Michael as the “top cop of the universe”
who works thru’ sound judgment beside Gabriel throughout time. Catholics would
have you see the very name of Gabriel means “Strong in God” – and I would have
you know, he does channel his strength even unto me. By his nature he upholds
me whether you see it or not – and you need see that because that so many
Muslims yet deny me the battle still rages in
As far as Jews are concerned, angelic Michael is their Prince, yet as far as Muslims are concerned he is “Master of the Winds” – but they need see, that also includes the storms of their lives. I shall cover more of this later here, but know this: Jesus was not God but was a Divine Messenger of God whose goodness is to reign in your hearts. Thus praise the embodiment of Christ, and know that by His very nature that praise will be returned to the Lord thy God – but worship Him not. Worship God and God Alone. Amen, amen.
What I have brought to you in these works is nothing new, for people have sought to bring Unity of Faith before me. All I have done is added mine own dimension to that goal thru’ the Guidance I did Receive, and you should know that by now but it shall be more evident here today – and there is no good reason for anyone of organized religion to set themselves against me. Rather it is their need to find agreement here, not just with me but with others, so that the opening of the road to Unity in Faith is fulfilled. That is your new beginning; find it this day. If you but call this a book of poems because of the songs I write I pity you; but that is up to your free will.
Tests: it is in your nature to deny Truth, and it is in your nature to find belief in it – and it is in His Nature to Test you. Pass the Test.
Do not deny the Oneness here.
Do not deny the great parts of the Unknown I have revealed.
And do not deny me as His Messenger.
Amen, amen. Here is another song which took me all of about 10 minutes to write.
Teach Me Right from Wrong
=====================
(A)I know You’re here, (Aaug)I know You’re there
(A)I know you’re everywhere, Lord(G)
(A)I feel You in my heart, (Aaug)I feel You in my soul

--
Look at the world, look at yourself

Oh, Lord, Teach me Right from wrong
Teach me Right from wrong
Lord, Teach me Right from wrong
Teach me, Lord, Right, from wrong
Ya got to learn Right from wrong
Praise God
Amen.
Well, likely the haters and deniers might only say God needs to teach me a thing or two; but they are only refusing to learn.
Here’s another new song I wrote just a few days before posting this, tho’; again, in all of about 10 minutes.
We Few, We Do (Know What You Do)
==============================
Love a little, if you care at all
Care a little, don’t let your love fall
If you feel it fading, better mend your heart
Know He Is Waiting for a brand new start
We few, we do, but it’s up to you
Reach in your heart, make a new start
Know what you do
I hear many, cryin’ in the night
I see so many just dyin’ inside
And it tears me down, but He picks me up
Take a drink from the wondrous Cup
We few, we do, but it’s up to you
Reach in your heart, make a new start
Know what you do
Better days, I have seen
Better ways I hope you all to bring
We’re so different, but so much alike
Share a meal, in the candlelight
We few, we do, but it’s up to you
Reach in your heart, make a new start
Know what you do
We few, we do, but it’s up to you
Reach in your heart, make a new start
Know what you do
We few, we do, but it’s up to you
Reach in your heart, make a new start
Know what you do
We few
We do
Know what you do
“We few”: actually I was speaking of His Chosen in that, and always does the Lord look for man to find new beginnings. No, I didn’t leave the chords for you here; but you can be one of those few today in a sense simply by reaching into your heart and sharing this meal in love. I will be taking you thru’ some hymnals today to prove these Truths, and this is the first of them. God bless. Amen, amen.
Joy to the World
============
(A)Joy to the world! The (A)Lord (E)is (A)come
Let (D)earth re-(E)ceive her (A)King
Let (A)every heart pre-(A)pare Him room
And (A)heaven and nature sing, and (E)heaven and nature sing
And (A)heaven, and (D)heaven, and (A)na-(E)ture (A)sing
Joy to the world! The Savior reigns
Let men their songs employ
While fields and floods, rocks, hills and plains
Repeat the sounding joy, repeat the sounding joy
Repeat, repeat, the sounding joy
No more let sins and sorrows grow
Nor thorns infest the ground
He comes to make His blessings flow
Far as the curse is found, far as the curse is found
Far as, far as, the curse is found
He rules the world with truth and grace
And makes the nations prove
The glories of His righteousness
And wonders of His love, and wonders of His love
And wonders, and wonders, of His love
“makes the nations prove”; every one of you who has sung this song and held faith in it should know that nations must prove themselves unto God. So why should any think it wrong for one of the Sonship to bring them to it ?? Some act as if I committed a crime.
But it is my solemn duty to make the nations prove themselves in light of God today – and those who know the Scripture should know this, for it is Written that the nations will prove themselves in Christ. But if ye do that not today thru’ these teachings you will but break Christ in His prophecy of that and God shall Turn to His Recourse in His Many Ways – and yes, that includes His Wrath. Thus you should see, not to answer to this in good manner and in good and believing ways does only serve the prophesied anti-Christ.
“far as the curse is found”; that is Meant to Remind you of His Curse, and still it looms. I have love for you; but prove yours for me.
“King of hearts” ?? Well, consider what I say of covenants today and know I am of the Sonship – but my kingdom is not of this world.
“let men their songs employ”; I asked you to do that as well, and many only thought it blasphemy. Truth and grace, people – turn to those, for only in that may you remove the thorns that have been fallen upon your path over all these years due to your differences.
Make blessings flow, that sins and sorrows are lessened. Cleanse you heart thru’ reform in goodness, that you are sure there is room in it for God – for without that you will never realize those things He would Lend to you, and the essence of goodness which is Christ will be lost to you. Heaven and nature are already singing: are you ?? Repeat this as a joy, brothers – for in that is the only way to avoid His Curse. Call it heresy if you will – but those who do not believe it is True that the world does have a chance to be Blessed with His Mercy and His Grace in His Leave are those whose legs are joined, who cannot walk in faith. So; are you walking in faith today, or scheming and plotting things in disregard of what I have said ?? Are you trying to love thy neighbor, or are you trying to kill him ??
Whatever… to go on…
Some wildfires were raging today in the
But the last and largest factor is the refusal of extremist elements to allow Iraqis to govern themselves in representative fashion.
And I will get back to all that later here; yet I should say I would have appreciated it if President Bush would have directed that same frame of mind toward those who have set themselves against me so heavily. But verily, I feel that many leaders have only come to feel that I am below them and they need not listen nor answer to me. Yet I am a righteous man of God – Chosen for the Sonship, and Given His Authority and Permission in these things even as the Qur’an did Say. Please keep that in mind, then. Amen, amen, amen.
I noted last month that Sigmund Freud once said there are three steps in the history of a great discovery. First, its opponents say that the discoverer is crazy; later, that he is sane but that his discovery is of no real importance; and last that the discovery is important but everybody has known it right along.” I also noted that indeed, I have been caught in such a circumstance, and while some made it thru’ each of those steps some are still in denial – but gimme three steps. People have said I was crazy; people have said this was of no real importance; but make that “last” discovery before it is too late. Verily, Sigmund Freud would have been one of those to say I was crazy – for I have seen his works of disbelief. Thus there is no “psychoanalyst” here who is trained in his teachings which can talk to me without laying on the couch themselves, then, as their teacher was an atheist. Freud saw religion as people’s tendency to worship the ground their earthly fathers walked on and determined that religious beliefs were “infantile” and based on the need to construct a supernatural reality in the conscious mind. He said Paradise and the fall of man, along with a host of other beliefs, were but myths, and good and evil were but obscure factors, relating that religious beliefs should give way to “psychology of the unconscious” (his own trade), saying religion was nothing but “the oldest, strongest and most urgent wishes of mankind”, a store of man’s ideas created in his need to make his helplessness tolerable and built from material of memories of the helplessness of childhood and the childhood of the human race”; regressing and “projecting a divine being on the model of an earthly father (to) impinge upon adult existence.” If you ask me the guy was full of himself; he completely rejected the idea that anyone needed to atone for sins, and I see it that his own senseless anxiety led him to ridicule belief. He basically said anyone who believes in God or anything of spiritual nature is in need of psychological help and labeled religion as an illusion; I see it that he was in need of spiritual help. He may have had some good ideas in other areas of his field and prospered in them, but ultimately he wronged himself and others in turning away from God. His view of the Crucifixion was that if Jesus died upon the cross it was not to redeem the sins of others but that Jesus showed an Oedipal desire to “kill his father” and have his mother to himself. Gimme a friggin’ break. I guess one might be able to say where he is now after denying God and influencing many against belief in Him; but verily, it is the whole of a man’s contribution in his being upon which he is judged. Yet the fact Freud would likely have been one to call me crazy relates that he would have fallen prey to the first step in those three steps he spoke of concerning “the history of a great discovery” I started with here.
And it only proves that even the most knowledgeable of people can be blithering idiots at times. We are Allowed that, tho’, to a degree.
It is something of the Boundaries He hath Set for us, and the boundaries we must set for ourselves. Amen, amen.
I should add, my information here on Freud came from the
collaborative work of Roger Johnson, Ernest Wallwork,
Clifford Green, Harold Vanderpool, Paul Santmire, Susannah (O Susannah !!)
Heschel, and Paul Knitter, in a book entitled
“Critical Issues In Modern Religion” which I will
cover to an extent here. The copy I hold was found in a dumpster today by my
little brother – the second edition, published in 1990. I thought it more than
coincidence that the first edition was published in 1973 when I was still in
high school and had just gotten my driver’s license; but if you choose to read
it, realize that they were showing the doubt and denial which atheists had cast
in an effort to refute their findings, so don’t be mad at them if you see
something you don’t like; but I took special note of the last two chapters,
which consisted of their discussion of “cultural pluralism” where religion is
concerned. The first of the two was on “Modern Historical Thought and the
Validity of Religious Truth” and started out by saying exactly what I, as well
as Jews and Muslims, claim of the New Testament, that over time the original
writings were changed to suit the whim of the early Romans. Paul had wondered
if the Abrahamic covenant had been broken by the
Jewish condemnation of Christ and ended up saying no; yet what it notable here
is that later Catholic writers changed that in the New Testament to brand the
Jews as a synagogue of the devil. I see it that tho’ Jews were obviously
Punished by God thru’ the persecution they suffered at the hands of the Romans
they were not Condemned – else the Muslims would never have renewed them thru’
that “Protected” status which the Lord did Instill in Muhammad’s faith. The
question now is if Muslims will see that now and look for more harmonious
relations with Jews; but to go on, the book furthered some points about other
religions and their cultures, namely American Indian, Buddhist, and Hindu
religions. Basically it pointed out that in the 1880’s
Troeltsch also held that religion was independent of social and psychic processes, thereby refuting Freud’s atheistic views, and that was backed up by a number of theologists who followed him in the comparative analysis of religions. But to go on, the second of these two chapters – “The Relative and the Ultimate in the Encounter of Religions” – delved into the problem of trying to bring different beliefs more in tune with each other. This has likely never been more evident to any besides me; but while the foundation of it has been established so long most only try to evade it, and many would rather just call me a heretic than face the facts. For 200 years people have tried to do this; for 200 years people have seen that the Truths of God are interwoven in our religions; and yet most would rather sit back and argue that theirs is Right and everyone else is wrong. Do you not think that God is not angry about the fact that in indifference we have kept ourselves from real spiritual growth ?? I do; in fact, I not only think that but I know it. And I also know that Satan is the one who has kept people at each other’s throats concerning it. But I was glad to read of how Paul Tillich took “Catholic substance” and “Protestant principle” to the mat as he felt the two had become sterile and of how he sought to infuse them with the Jewish roots of Christianity. I don’t know if Tillich or Troeltsch ever encountered the religion left by Zarathustra, but both of them noted they felt both Judaism and Christianity had been influenced by other religions in their early days. Unfortunately Tillich died before getting into any other religions to any great degree; but nevertheless it was a great start. He was more into the “universal dynamics” of religion that Troeltsch, who leaned toward ties of culture as the core of religions; he recognized that tho’ cultures are so different they share “certain fundamental concerns” – the core of those being basic needs and morals. Yet he shied away from “relativism” and “ethical consequences” because that he saw them as difficulties “rooted in an ultimate meaning of life”; but of course this might be why so many shied away from me, because that they fear those difficulties. I disagreed a bit in what Tillich said of man’s relation to God; but I am clearly agreed in that religion is not to be kept exclusively in a religious institution but must be shared in all aspects of life – and I would add here what the authors said of cultures not being “theonomous” – that “the Light of the Holy does not shine transparently into all our experience”… indeed, for some people it does not shine on them at all. That is why we have atheists. Yet Tillich, too, noted the difficulties in merely trying to relate new religious views to others, as they tend to take offense – and he pointed out one atheist view I had never heard before, that if Truly there is a God He needs to be killed. I would say anyone who believes that will rot in hell, but they’ll be too busy burning to rot.
I wasn’t too hip on what he said of religions being grasped by an ultimate concern at first, as I felt that just goes back to Freud’s thinking – but when you think about it, the Lord is Concerned for us and Causes us to grasp such things and find new meanings over time.
And I didn’t agree with him at all in what he said of
communism having “religious characteristics” and fostering a “casteless
society” – at least, not in its current manner. It seems to me he was merely
pushing communism after having left his professorship in
But I would give you something Tillich said, that you might think about it: that religion “must never make itself the ultimate concern but should direct ultimate concern beyond itself to the ultimate, to the ground of being, to God. Religion is a medium, not the Ultimate itself.” Exactly; religion is a medium. Thru’ it we express ourselves in nature unto others and unto God, and tho’ man by his very nature is not fully focused in it, a believer does try to surround himself in it as that ground of being, and so it directs our concerns as we go thru’ life. Yet your ultimate concern should be the life beyond, not this one, altho’ to have that other life of Promise you must prove yourselves in Right manner in this one. The book went on for a bit to discuss symbolism and show that anyone uses it in expressing their beliefs, and I agree, that is True of singing a song or manner of prayer. But Truth Is, the greatness of a man is being able to see how small he is while trying to be something large tho’ humble in being of service unto others in sight of God. Right ??
Whatever; that is my belief. If you don’t want to recognize there is a God in heaven Who Is the Creator and Supreme Being Whom you will one day answer to, well, that’s your own problem. I have at least been humble and concerned enough to try to help you see it.
But I am agreed with the authors here in that people must play a good part in that “ground of being” – for that is the root of our purpose of being, and when people do not ground themselves in it spiritually they give themselves up to sin in material lusts, and no-one does Truly gain from that in the long run. These writers made it a point to say, tho’, that “life itself, true being… can be related concretely to all aspects of human experience”… and they are Right. That is easier said than done, tho’. The greatest believer does that to the best of his ability but always does he seek to grow in spiritual understandings in order to fulfill his purpose in life; and one’s greatest purpose in life, besides living Right in his own manner, is providing for others in both spiritual and material needs. That said, one must not only seek to be a provider but a comforter and a teacher; but the problem is, and I am proof of it, in that there will be those both of believing and disbelieving natures who will want to rip you apart because they do not wish to hear you. And yes, others will just totally ignore you; but there will be those you get thru’ to, and in that is the source of thine own comfort. Amen, amen.
“Courage to Be”; while death tends to represent a threat to one’s being for most, it is but the pathway to the life beyond. If you have proven yourself it will be a blessing unto you; but if you have failed it will not. What is success and failure, then ?? You can make many mistakes and still succeed, as in Judgment your deeds are Weighed – but what you must recognize is that indeed they will be Weighed, and you will be sinning if you ignore that fact or laugh it off or even be angry with me for saying it. Which of you will succeed ??
The question was asked: “what is the purpose of the whole enterprise of technical civilization and capitalist economics?” – and as these authors answered it in speaking of anxiety and despair, I rather believe it a part of man finding growth as individual beings while searching for growth as a whole. Yet long has man’s technology grown while his understanding of purpose and being, in spiritual sense, has not. That is what the spiritual revolution I was Meant to lead you to is about, catching your inner being up to the outer world; for without that the world will continue to decay in material things, ruined by the indifference some show in spiritual things.
And some of you have only proved yourselves in that indifference of ruin, in the manner you responded to me. I can live with that in my heart and be the wiser for it; but can you ?? Prove yourselves today in clear sight of this Truth and in clear sight of the Almighty.
Amen, amen, amen.
True, as the authors have said, some affirm themselves in
spite of anxiety; bur the True nature of affirming one’s self should be done in
sight of the needs of others and in sight of their own Truths so that they may
better grasp his own. So let me give a bit more from Tillich:
“Being embraces itself and nonbeing. Being has nonbeing within itself as that
which is eternally present and eternally overcome in the process of the divine
life. The ground of everything that is, is not a dead identity without movement
and becoming; it is living creativity. Creativity affirms itself, eternally
conquering its own nonbeing. As such it is the pattern of self-affirmation of
every finite being and the source of the courage to be.” There is much held in
these words to expand upon, but creativity itself is God in His
Our own patterns of self-affirmation, believe it or not, are something of His Own. But again, from Tillich: “Every courage to be has an open or hidden religious root.” Well, that is only true of atheism if you look at it thru’ the definition of religion as a philosophy of life; but I see it that atheists get their courage to speak against God not from religious aspects but from denial of them. That should also reflect, tho’, that none own existential being or Truth, but that they are a part of it and need be of goodly contribution to it; and that very idea was at the essence of the original teachings of Christ where communism is concerned. But to go on, from Tillich: “religion is the state of being grasped by the power of being itself”; by His Nature God is the Power of Being, and all that any grasp and take as their religion are but a part of that; and so no, the definition of religion as a philosophy of life cannot be used to say atheism is a religion as it defies Him as the Power of Being. Thus tho’ all people and all things participate in existential being in some manner not all people are aware of it – but they will be, if and when His Wrath does fall, and that should be accepted as universal to anyone’s beliefs. Constantly affirm your being and seek Right ways of fulfillment in it; constantly seek growth in your understanding of God: that thou art Right in thy ways and that thy True human potential is reached. Good and believing ways are the only True course to that. Amen, amen. They are the essence of proving your ownself in the finite material life in order to gain ever-lasting spiritual life. You cannot be so proud of your own beliefs that you refuse to accept the clear Truths which others hold; instead you must be willing to examine them in order to refine your own beliefs – for if this man holds not to his existence is at a loss both of innocence and goodness, because that he hath inherited knowledge. It is the enjoinment of all covenants God hath with all people of Faith, and so it is the foundation of the ever-lasting covenant of Unity of Faith between beliefs as a universal molding of culture – but estrangement to it will be the fall of man. The question was asked whether or not that can be overcome – whether or not man can be trusting enough to let his spirit guide him rather than his pride – whether or not man can be healed in new being; and I must say, only if man, on the whole, will take this to heart and accept it as clear Truth.
“To share in new being is to begin the process of healing”; verily that is True, and people have shared in that search for long – but who among you shall even bother to share in mine own here today and so find a share of the ultimate spiritual experience in Paradise ??
The quest for happiness and the quest for new being are one and the same, people. You cannot Truly find one without finding the other – but I have found both happiness and new being even amidst the denial that was set against me and do invite you to share in it.
This is my table; this is the meal I serve; but verily, many stood looking and tasting of this or that without Truly sitting down to eat.
The only True search for new being must include both historical and non-historical form; it must take into account both the past and present and built upon the future in good and believing ways, for without finding such a future the fall of man will come – and long have I sought all that here. Long have I toiled over these things, and the Lord did Make it easy for me even in the face of ridicule – even tho’ all religions hold some element of an expectation of new reality, many did not wish to acknowledge those expectations here.
And verily it is that most wish not to give up any part of their beliefs nor their authority in them.
But Tillich found that while Judaism, Christianity and Islam did see “new being” as something which would come within history, Buddhism, Hinduism and Taoism look at that as something which transcends history. Well, you cannot be a faithful part of history if you cannot transcend in your beliefs to a higher spiritual level, nor can you transcend history if throughout history you refuse the same. In his studies Tillich found the quest for new being to be universal; but he also noted, as have I before, that man’s existence by its very nature will always experience misery. It only frustrates me that the unthinking have sought so hard to cause me misery as I worked towards this universal goal, then; but verily, it is you duty unto God to transcend all values thru’ reshaping them in faith, hope and charity while setting aside greed, hatred, and anger – that you may be one to share in ever-lasting spiritual life regardless of those who find no share in it. That is the very heart of the concept of transcending the sphere of existence, and very idea of spiritual growth; and the very idea of finding new beginnings in greater understandings. I was Chosen and so Brought out of the life I had led so long in order to lead this one, that I set an example unto you; but which of you will follow that example today ?? Which of you will set aside your grievances in humble and honest manner and look to build upon something new ??
Those who will not participate in the healing power of new being will not fulfill their being, for otherwise their nature, tho’ it may prosper, will be self-destructive in the spiritual sense. Tillich also found this True in his studies, and I agree whole-heartedly.
“The New Being… is the negation of all beings and the affirmation of the Ground of Being alone. One could say that the price paid for the New Being is the negation of everything that has being. This is the root of the difference in the East and the West in the feeling for life.”
I must add that as estrangement to unification will indeed bring the fall of man, it must be seen that unification, or Unity of Faith, is the only course we have to take in finding that new being. I do not really see it as a negation of all beings or of everything that has being but a regrouping of being brought to concordance by the faithful, in order to get past the differences which tear us apart. It is obvious that we share Truth, and it is obvious that to get past our differences we must face that Truth; yet it is also obvious that if people only continue in their biases and act like they own Truth such will never be accomplished. The time is come; agree with me in this. Amen, amen.
The Ground of Being; the common grounds of all Faith; the common bonds of all Truth; a road to walk in good faith while setting aside biases to find the good end in things thru’ greater understanding between beliefs and so fulfill man’s True purpose of being. If you do not negate differences in search of new meaning and being He will Negate them for you in ways of His Own; and if you do not believe His Wrath is one of those nor that a Supreme Being even exists you are but lost. The Ground of Being is one and the same as that Monotheism Islam searches for; one and the same as the desire established religions have to be recognized as the one and True religion; but it will not come without sacrifice, as to find it you must be willing to accept the Truths which are shared between you. All of those did come in some manner from the One and True Eternal Lord of the heavens and earth, and all of those were conditioned by culture and are impermanent; and to find new being you must recondition those beliefs.
Reconditioning beliefs, then, is key – exactly what I have pointed out from the Buddha’s last words.
Reconditioning beliefs, then, is key – exactly what I have pointed out from the Buddha’s last words. Amen, amen.
I would leave here a paragraph from the authors: “The Christ symbolizes New Being. Here in an actual human life, true human nature is fulfilled without any form of estrangement. This also means that in the Christ, being itself discloses its healing and saving dimension. Human life is rooted in an ultimate reality which not only has the power to resist nonbeing, but also is present to heal the estrangement of existence. The symbol of New Being points to this source of healing and unites people existentially with the ground of their being which can begin to heal estrangement.” To begin with, I found it strange that I only saw this after someone threw it away and my brother dragged it out of a dumpster – but as the old saying goes, “one man’s trash is another man’s treasure.”
I would have you to see from the second statement, tho’, that because of estrangement human nature runs the risk of not being fulfilled – that because of denial of clear Truths when they come to you, your own obligations to God, self, and others do only fall astray.
And I feel I have disclosed enough of my being in these works to prove to you I carry a healing and saving dimension. But tho’ that is up to you to decide in your own free will, from the last sentence of their paragraph it is clear: Unity of Faith can only come thru’ healing in understandings. Greater understandings begin with healing of differences in them, and to deny that is to die in the Ultimate goal of Faith. Thus without accepting this you curse your ownself, not me.
Universal love ?? Tillich touched upon that as well, in that he saw love as more than an emotion but as a divine part of one’s being which unites and integrates people. Yet while there is suffering there will be conflict, and so the transcendence of religious beliefs is an ever-growing thing to seek which over time may bring that universality if only people do search for it in life. So what is the purpose of life but fostering that very transcendence ?? It is relative to our cultures, tho’, because that they have differences; and in that, fostering growth in culture is the one method we have to find spiritual growth between cultures in. One problem with that is man’s greed, and because of that I will turn to some spiritual teachings for business practices shortly.
But it was Tillich’s determination
that progress in enjoining faith can only come thru’ the act of admitting no one
religion holds all of Truth – that no essential aspect of the Divine is
completely missing from any religion but that each is distinctive in its form
and is but a manifestation of being. I would add that those manifestations come
in great part of those
And to go back to the purpose of life being the fostering of transcendence, that will only come in finding new being in spirituality.
Which is what I have done here, in fulfillment of mine own part in that purpose. Join me in enjoining faith, and so Be!; the part of the purpose of life you are Meant to be. Reality is a manifestation of being itself and you cannot find salvation thru’ detaching yourself from it but must be a wholesome part of it. Without active participation in transforming cultures you do nothing for transcendence of the spirit. He Is always Moving, always Creating; but to hide yourself away from that aspect of life you hide yourself from Him – and so you cannot receive Salvation as ultimately there is no real growth in your being without fulfilling your part in His Purpose.
Amen, amen.
Tillich added that religious convictions are based ultimately upon revelatory experiences of those who bring them; and if you don’t think I have had one of those myself you have yet another think coming as a revelatory experience of your own. But if you ever get the dynamics of your search Right you will find there is a Supreme Being, He Who Is, Who does Govern matters throughout all the heavens in His Many Ways. If you throw that away He will throw you away; so for your own sake, accept this and do not beg to differ.
Amen, amen.
I am the New Being.
I am His Chosen, to whom it was Given to bring you to see this.
And in recognition and acceptance of that you have a real chance to find True reform. Take it.
Pain ?? As manifestations of being in the world you must continue to strive for perfection even in your pains and seek to become of one heart and one mind, both in worldly affairs and in spiritual beliefs – for without that will come the fall of man, in that end of doom.
Distancing yourself from worldly affairs jeopardizes your own religious substance – but Satan wants you to do just that, so that his own grip on society is made firm. Get a grip. Take society back from Satan by transforming it over time, that transcendence comes.
Society has been growing in leaps and bounds, while religion has not – and the only way to conquer Satan is to loose his grip from society thru’ growth in common bonds not just of Faith but of culture. Let not growth in virtue of Faith, Hope and Charity pass you by.
Amen, amen.
It was written here that for those who took Tillich seriously, naïve exclusivism, parochial particularity, and insensitive superiority are no longer acceptable; that he undercut the grounds of religious bigotry, intolerance, and persecution; that basically he laid out the fact that there are two themes of religious integrity; and that you cannot simply dispense of religious traditions. All that is True.
But in those who take me not seriously, I have the same obstacles as did he to deal with: exclusivism, particularity, and superiority. Perhaps Freud would have been helpful in overcoming those obstacles had he believed in God, and had this come about in his day.
Yet bigotry, intolerance, and persecution have been the underlying factors in the denial which rose against me.
As for the two themes of religious integrity, those being the absolute, or relative, and the Ultimate, or the particular, well, the Ultimate relates again to the goal of “New Being” whereas the absolute is relative to culture in that they somewhat define it. Thus tho’ a culture may grow it cannot transcend without growth in the religion, nor can the religion grow without growth in the culture. Thus it becomes the “universality of basic human concerns” to see that both culture and religion grow; that culture rises as religion fosters Right growth in it. I guess you must only see, tho’, that religion has some catching up to do, while society needs reform. Amen ??
Amen, amen.
Tillich questioned himself in his particulars, knowing individuality was a basic part of being and history was an inescapable reality.
I do that myself as I write here in order to be sure mine own particulars are within the range which society as a whole is able to learn from, and I have His Guidance in that – but what society wants to accept, and what it needs to accept, are two different things.
And so the reverse side of his question is exactly that which concerns me in regard to those who just totally refuse to set their biases aside and only deny Truth even when it is Made clear to them – and yes, that does concern the Lord as well, as they listen not at all.
I wondered anyone who actually knew Tillich was still around, as he died in 1965. And I wondered why the movement he had started had not gained much ground. But I knew the answer. He held no covenant because that he was not Chosen as a Messenger or Prophet but was a Teacher who found no full understanding of Islam, which held the previous covenant. I don’t know what month he died in, so I was either 7 or 8 at the time of his death; yet at that point in time, as I noted before, as a child I was already experiencing things that are demonstrate this would later come to me in life. Obviously God was just waiting for the Right time; and maybe you would better realize that if you recognized the Covenant which is Rested in me was Meant to further that growth – but that is up to you in your own free will. Perhaps it is that the ancients had a greater feel for that sort of thing, tho’ – but by Timothy’s notes it is clear that God wants all people to be Saved and to come to know His Truths, and there is always a mediator in that effort – especially in times of great distress, as is clear in Daniel 12. If you don’t think this is a time of great distress, well, there’s one more think ya got comin’; but tho’ some have found dynamic truth and confusion alike in Timothy’s statement, if you believed in me it would be clear.
After reading thru’ Chapter 14 of that book I felt the authors should have been in great agreement with me in what I gave of Islam’s having saved the Jews from the persecution of ancient Rome, and even of what I have said and will yet say today of His Covenants.
And I should note again the things which came up during the 2nd Vatican Council back in the early 60’s, but that is something the Catholics should have already reflected on today. It had to do with religions joining hands, and this has to do with bonding them in Faith – that which this book pointed out of Karl Rahner’s logic of the supernatural existential, in that His Love and Grace are available to anyone. Anyone of us can find that; but many do not search for it, so indeed, it must be instilled within our being thru’ religious designs.
And of course I realize that Catholics, and Christians, have always viewed Jesus as the final Revelation of the Word. That is why they have been unwilling to recognize Islam. The same is True of Muslims in claiming Muhammad to be the Last Prophet. Yet the dreams of Daniel can be seen to foretell both Muhammad and myself, and I have shown other instances in both Scripture and the Qur’an which support me in these things – and verily, Truth be known, Truth is extended to you throughout all time tho’ it is not always accepted. But again, in times like these one is Chosen and Brought to stand up to the denial and challenge man to accept those Truths.
And I have been doing that for long now but no-one seems to want to fully accept it. Many just want to get rid of me.
Yet in the early 60’s the World Council of Churches as well pushed for this very aim of finding unity, in order to transform the world into more just and livable manner. These things have been discussed, then, by many; but as yet have produced next to nothing.
But after reading thru’ the book I just discussed I came to find Tillich’s central theme of unification much the same as mine: shared values, shared commitments, shared priorities, and shared sense of purpose. Those are good things and key to growth; yet tho’ dialogue occurs regardless of particularities, Tillich was concerned with what comes of dialogue when established religions refuse to give up their own particularities. Well, the answer to that is simple: spiritual growth decays, falls behind cultural growth, and regresses; and the Ultimate goal is delayed, frustrating and even angering God because that man refuses to learn. And that is where we are today.
So wake up, and be the Wise. Amen, amen. As far as “fullness of New Being” goes, that is why I stand here today.
Break the bow of denial and find love in your heart. Here’s a verse from a blues song in E9 from another of my new songs…
Take a little more time
Bring a little more soul
Take a little more time
Be sure of what you know
Salvation’s on the line
And you have got to grow
Your heart must be refined
I come to tell you so
I come to tell you so
Take a little more time to realize the good and believing things in these works which lend to faith, and thirst not for my blood. Amen.
The majority of us know what it is to love; and the majority of us know what it is to love, and to lose. Don’t lose your love today, but realize this is a page in history; a page in life; a page, in the book of life. Read it; understand it; and turn it in Right way. Amen, amen.
I thought it might be of some help in serving your needs to at least look into some of the other books the authors suggested and drew from, so I noted listed a few of them here. Of course I really haven’t had an opportunity to read thru’ them myself, but I know I will not be fully agreed in them. They had likely not found themselves in Islam and Teachers, not Messengers, and had not heard me.
But still it might be of help to you and is at least a start.

They say love conquers all.
Prove it. Conquer me thru’ love, knowing if you but show me your love you will conquer the fear, doubt, anger, and yea, for some envy, you have for me. But if you only show me these other things you will wrong your ownselves, for verily, you will conquer your love.
One man implied that if I wanted to be a fisherman I should take myself to the creek and find nourishment at the end of a fishing pole – but Truly it is that I fish the muddy waters of the world, in search of those good-hearted souls who will answer to it in good manner.
And many of those good-hearted souls I searched for did answer in good manner.
Indeed, some people did come to me today smiling, to meet me. And of those a few who were Truly ready to talk to me said they appreciated my work here. None of those were of any great power or wealth and could not meet my needs; but they did help me some.
Yet some others, who could have come to me but did not, only acted as tho’ I was fishing without a license. Get real, and get Right.
Reason without faith may lend to worldly things but lends little to spiritual ones, and faith without reason is dead and so lends little more – but all His Messengers and Prophets did face accusations of political and religious leaders along with that of those of little faith.
And of that I am living proof. Believe it, and remember it as you sit at this table today.
It was heartening to see some stand up to face the challenge
of seeking uprightness in
But again I was reminded of atrocities in
You have two guides in life to follow, the Source of thy faith and the Goal of thy faith – but you can possess neither. Thus while old traditions should be honored, teachings need be applied in more modern ways. Look ahead with vision; if all you do is look back you will not see the obstacles in thy way. We are Meant to be on a quest for happiness thru’ loving example and unselfish service; but that search for happiness is not just to be for your own but for that of thy brethren also, which is why thou art to defend thy brethren.
True, to an extent that encompasses the dignity and faith they carry, as to whether or not they are deserving of reward; but if you were a child dragged into that army what would you do ?? Shoot at whoever they tell you to ?? Let them hide behind you when a bomb explodes ?? Kill as many of them as you could take with you ?? Verily, a heavy decision it is; but a child’s place is not behind a gun nor being used as a human shield. Yet you are defending none standing against me. It is not my aim to chastise any in their faith but to Straighten them in it – and as is clearly seen in the Qur’an, that is indeed part of my duty unto the Lord. Can I get an Amen ??
I was standing in the shower and something clicked in my heart and rose to mind. Water in blessing ?? Many times a song or something good to write here comes out; but this day I thought of my daughter, knowing she was fine now and I am Told not to worry for her – even tho’ I am Told some will yet be after her. So as a parent I wondered if she would be okay, especially if I fall at the hands of wicked men as so many before me. If I fall it does not ruin me but takes away from my good aim; yet my concern this day was for my child.
But the Lord Gives me strength. I have not been able to see my daughter for a year now, and she is to be wed in two weeks whether I make it there or not. But I looked back on those days when Jesse could not keep a job and they could not pay the bills. I gave them $400 here, $500 there, nearly every month and at times more than once a month for a year and a half to two years. I had plenty then even after I had no job, as I drew out the fund I had built for retirement; and she needed it more than I did. So I didn’t let it bother me that I ended up behind in mine own bills; I cared more for her and her child than I did for myself. All that was going on even as I began my work here; and since I left last summer, broke, they have made out okay but still need help from time to time; so as I stood in the shower I wondered, where will it go from here ?? I know not what will be His Decision; verily, He Waits for your own decisions; and tho’ I tried to hold it in I cried a moment; and thought, well, there are times you have to let go. Yet it ticked me off when a miserly old man called me a jobless bum helping no-one, not listening at all to me here. Verily, it is because of people like him who are not caring and giving that the world is such a mess – and if they would clean up their act the world would be a better place.
Amen ??
Whether you “Amen” to that or not, I said before I did not ask for this but it was dumped in my lap and Given me to do. It would not have been Right without the Qur’an; I would not have been True without finding Islamic Truths, nor without His Guidance in them.
But I love my daughter, and she thinks the world of me. I know she can’t save me, yet I know the Eternal One can. He hath Seen my heart while no other did, and hath Set things in it no other could find; and in the end He will Prove me as His Own. In that I have faith.
Amen, amen.
I was glad to see Mr. Diaz speak for human rights, but where immigration is concerned a blending of things from both sides of the issue is needed: so I was just as glad to see the Minutemen stand up with other citizens to voice their concerns. Unity has a part in many things, not just Faith – but Faith should be at their heart. And I heard one say voluntary measures are nice but are not being taken by some officials. Reform is still needed, then – yet it is fortunate some are getting things done. Good change and better relations are key to good will and brotherhood, and we must reform worldly practices for spiritual healing to come. Sing, ye faces of faith. Amen, amen.
Be!; heard by man, and by God. Amen, amen, amen.
“Sing out loud, sing out strong; sing for good things, not bad; sing for happy, not sad”… these are excellent points to carry in faith.
Sing with the love of God in thy heart, fearing not the haters; that ye may better find what He hath in store and share it. Amen, amen.
Reverend Schuller: there was much encouragement to find here even amid the necessary warnings; but the discouragement you spoke of came of failure to recognize it, because of fear, doubt, and anger that many refused to set aside. But you are Right; prayer does heal.
Sins may be Forgiven; but still you must atone for them thru’ gracefully and graciously striking accord in them – and with God as my Witness, and I as His, to wit, even you are witnesses unto me, and unto your ownselves, and unto all others. Have faith, and read on.
Amen, amen, amen.
Get this Right today; Jesus was not the “Son of God” in a maternal respect but was one of the Sonship, and only thru’ that may He be considered the “Son of God”; and as for being the “Begotten Son” the only Right way to see that is belief in the Immaculate Conception.
And yes, I use those terms myself but only in that sense – taken Straight from the Qur’an. Jesus was a Messenger, a Prophet, and a Teacher combined – and as such was the greatest of His Servants.
Amen, amen.
Yet the greatest thing a man can give to God is a life of service; the greatest prayer a man can pray is one which is thoughtful of others; and the greatest a man can do for another is to help him find greater understanding in the Eternal One, and in the life he should live.
Thus Muhammad was great as well. In taking down the pagan
rites of the “abyss” of
I do regret having not refrained from anger momentarily once today when an evangelist twisted my words against me, because that a half-believing woman, in seeing frustration, did think me wrong. She realized not that he was arguing fervently to contest me; so I did point that out to her and prayed that in faith she might understand. Always do His Chosen experience frustration because of disbelief; it is the reason the disciples tried to keep the children from visiting Jesus. But verily, those dogging me bruise me as a reed, making me look bad. They make something worse of their ownselves in it; yet in the Qur’an I am Told not to argue with the rebellious. But I must stand for what is Right; so is it wrong to defend myself ?? I don’t think so at all. But is it that I have been bruising reeds myself ??
I feel I gave them room to breathe as I showed the bruises they brought upon themselves, and that should be a respectable teaching.
It is Best to turn the other cheek; but when some just slap me over and over again, should I not slap them back if need be ??
If I did not, would it be setting a good example ?? To just let people walk all over you ?? People do that; but some say I am doing that to you. Yet if I must strike someone in self-defense or in defense of another and I bruise him, did not he bring that on his ownself ??
I guess I could just as well ignore them and let them tear you from me and follow them in their own designs. But is that right ??
Verily, I made no man worse than he already was. Those who denied me made worse of themselves; those who accepted me made better of themselves. Yet ye must see, it is not impossible for mankind as a whole to overcome the corruptness Satan holds over society.
But you must recognize your corruption and reform yourselves in goodness, that surely goodness prevails. I heard some say “seeing dreams fulfilled is pleasant”; and I have said that before but if they fail to lend to needy others in good and believing ways it is failure. Yes, some might twist that and call me a failure; but hope without faith, or faith without hope, and either or both without charity, or charity without faith, bring not True resolve. Faith, Hope, and Charity are essential to living a good and believing life – yet without Reason those begin to fall and be left behind. But one caring dream is worth more than all the uncaring dreams of the world; and one uncaring dream takes away from the sum of all things; so take care to be sure your dreams are caring and faithful. Amen, amen, amen.
Caring and faithful; do you think it is caring and faithful that some are just sitting here looking for a way to renounce me ??
Not at all; yet some do but depict me as “a sinner with a new plan” and so think nothing good can come of it. Well, if that is True nothing good can come from your plans either – for we are all sinners. They are hypocrites, then; and this is no plan but an outline. Not even the angels know the fullness of His Plan; but those who turn to good and believing ways may find good ends and new beginnings amidst corruption. Always there are better ways to seek; for man is never perfect, no matter how hard he strives to find perfection.
But do not think that “end of doom” must come. It is not set in stone nor Mandated by the Lord but is the sole responsibility of Him to bring if and when He Sees fit. He Looks for a resurrection of faith here today; but if you allow Satan to keep you from it you will find that the Lord will bring one of those Days to fear upon you in His Decision, and it will be a Reckoning of His Wrath rather than the reckoning of reason in faith He did Choose me to bring. If you don’t like it, well, nothing is perfect – or at least, not in your eyes. Yes, of course some may argue, saying Jesus was perfect – but in the eyes of those priests he was not. Be like them if you want, but it is not your need.
Praise God, that ye may not be one to suffer tribulations; but if still they come, praise Him and know it is your only hope. Amen.
I was especially happy to hear the heart of a woman in
One woman claimed “perfection” to be the act of giving 100% of what you can and going on as you may in that, and I agree; but those who do that only for themselves fail in their responsibilities unto others, and unto God. You must be charitable; you must lend to the hope and faith of others as best you can, looking to be pious in your nature. “Forever you, girl”; mankind, as Woman, is forever God’s – thus you cannot leave Him out of your life but must live the best life you can in the knowledge you have of Him. Giving and caring ways must be at the heart of that life if you hope for Him to be Giving and Caring toward you. Recognize Him, and recognize those in His Service, that it may bring you blessings even in the darkest of hours. True, knowledge is the fruit which did bring Adam and Eve to fall from His Grace. But they did already pay for their sin, and if you only think their sin is ours to pay for as well, then you should think knowledge is bad – and if that is True you must throw away all the knowledge you hold, all your thoughts and words, all your books, and never think a thought or say a word or do a deed again, whether you think it right or wrong – except if you plant a seed and tend to a garden, in which case you must be a slave and never seek knowledge. But Adam and Eve did already pay for their sin.
Recognize Him, and recognize those in His Service; I do recognize that these evangelists consider themselves to be in His Service – but they have failed to recognize the same of me, for they have been so busy trying to attack me they have blinded themselves to Truth.
Yet where Adam and Eve are concerned, note that knowledge is Given unto us and that in our grace we are to redeem ourselves in it.
And you are a generation of knowledge. So act like one, in good and believing ways and prove yourselves a righteous generation rather than a wicked one. Sing unto the Lord in praise instead of arguing with me as so many have been doing and you will find healing – but if you continue to argue as did a woman today in saying any American who questions our President is a traitor, you will regret it.
What ?? Am I supposed to give him milk and cookies and go away if I have a question ?? He is supposed to listen to his fellow citizens and not set himself above them but answer to their concerns in good manner, for without that he becomes something of a dictator – and besides, a lot of people have been questioning him lately. His status in the polls is probably worse now than it has ever been.
But I’m a cowboy too, and a Straight shooter – yet I do not let pride get in the way of my aim. Maybe you want to think I do; but your need is to realize I must defend myself from the attacks of disbelievers in order to get the job done, and that same defense I must carry for those I see striving to get the job done despite their faults. So I must say, it was not pleasing to see what came of a press conference with Mr. Rumsfeld today – but they put him on the spot in a tight situation when he is trying to get things done. I was glad to hear him announce that some 200,000 Iraqi troops have been trained and armed, for that opens up the avenue we have searched long for to begin a withdrawal. Don’t wait ‘til the end of the year, tho’, Sir, but start now in small increments while building up Iraqi troops. You know what al-Zarqawi has resigned himself to, as do Iraqis, and it is the sovereignty of their nation they must defend – and I only hope, and pray, that the separate militias will recognize that and so lend greater support to the Iraqi national army. Amen, amen, amen.
It worries me, tho’, to see relations deteriorating over differences
in policy where
I have faith you can see that and respond to it in good faith, Sir, but you need prove it unto others. Prove yourself in your beliefs by faith in this as the Oneness, as a part of the Unknown, and in me as His Messenger and Servant Chosen to bring it, one to hear and learn from. Obey me at least in this, and set things Right between Muslims and Jews by bringing them together as the sons of Abraham while showing conviction in striving to set things Right between Sunnis and Shiites and bring them together as brothers again.
Amen, amen, amen.
Please do not deny me; it is because that many Muslims deny me that others decided to do the same. Yet if you set yourself to better understand your teachings you will realize the same Muslims who deny me are those “Quraish pagans” Muhammad did prophesy, because that they refused to believe clear Truth when it came. They denied the Oneness, the Unknown, and His Messenger – me.
And you know the penalty for that. So give me thine answer: is that what you wish to find ahead of you ??
I do pray ye will answer to me in good faith of my work. Amen, amen.
But the Qur’an did Say many would only call me a liar; and those will have their eyes sunken and their legs joined, as also noted.
“Chew the fat” ?? Well, I was in church the night of May 2nd studying Leviticus and discussing the ancient rituals Aaron and his priests practiced, and I noticed it Said that the fat of animals belongs to God. I have to figure then, that as I generally cut the fat away from my steaks before I eat them it is good; and perhaps I could burn it as incense, but as the dogs normally get the leftovers I have to figure that as they are His Creatures as well then that is returned to Him; and trimming away beliefs which are untrue as fat is good.
I have yet to see “Trinity” mentioned in the Bible. Rather I see it as a part of the dogma early Romans came up with in aims to rule, using the last note Jesus made of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost to extend their rule – and that is exactly why Muhammad was Told not to believe in it, so that he would not end up in league with them but instead his people would save the Jews from persecution. So while I agree with him there is the Father and Christ, the greatest of the Sonship; and the Father works thru’ the Sonship and thru’ any other in the Spirit as that “Holy Ghost” Christ noted, its being the innate ability we all have to submit to God in humble manner and find what is His Will; but that only comes to you if you are Truly focused on what He Sets in your heart. Yet to think God walks as a man is false, which is why Muhammad was Kept from belief in the Roman dogma of the Trinity. Christ but said people need recognize God and Him and realize that salvation is granted thru’ belief in those of the Sonship, and in knowing that one may be open to give of himself completely and so find himself closer to God. Yes, I believe Muhammad, peace be upon him, came to that realization as a Chosen One of the Sonship also; but use Right sense here. In light of this, if you believe not in the “Holy Ghost”, or “Holy Spirit”, you cannot believe that you have a soul or can even do God’s Bidding. To fully understand that you might have to consider well what I already said prior to that right here in this same paragraph – but for a people who believe this should not be hard to realize; and if you come to that realization I suggest you get baptized, as did Jesus. That goes back to the things I said of water as blessings; but this isn’t just about individuals. It is aimed at whole nations, in that leaders need seek to make amends and so be baptized in the spirit. Pour a little water on the world and on your ownselves, that it may bring you showers of blessing. Amen, amen, amen.
I heard
And
Amen, amen, amen.
A couple of guys, unsure of all this, said they were “missing a few frames” – as if they weren’t getting the whole picture.
Well, we’re all missing a few frames, some more than others. That’s the way God Makes us to live. But to build a house you need frame it – altho’ I could turn around here and remind you that some have tried to frame me as a liar and a heretic who is up to no good.
No good ?? If you’re not striving for good ends alongside me then what good are you ?? One man had nothing better to say than to ask: “anyone know where I can find a good carpenter?” – as if he thought I was worthless !! Well, he can kiss my ever-lovin’… or maybe I should just build a frame of another window in his room; but it is obvious he has not bothered to look thru’ the others.
Yet another window this will be, for him…
I caught a glimpse of the show “Ghost Whisperer” today. Basically it is about a woman with a gift of seeing and speaking with the dead. In this particular episode she spoke to a ghost who told her of a plane still in the air with no-one flying it, as the crew was dead. She reported it to the FAA; and when the plane crashed nearby, she went to the wreckage site and saw the ghosts of what appeared to be others who died on the plane. But as she had reported the incident prior to their press release and before the crash, the FAA sent a man to question her. I suppose, in the story, they felt she had been in on some sort of plot to sabotage the plane; and I didn’t watch it all but only parts as I was busy, but the man did not want to believe her when she tried to say it was mere intuition. So she felt they would not believe her explanation. Well, I can relate to that. Indeed, people generally do not want to believe that which they understand not. And obviously that is why so many do not want to believe me; but to go back to the story one little girl was saved from death and an angel gave her a message to relate to the woman, that she had to stop an evil one. So the girl knew her mother was dead before anyone ever told her; yet the woman went back to the site and found the dead arguing against a pilot who said the crash was his fault. He had not completed the checklist prior to take-off. She told them not to argue but to go into the light; yet the dark one showed up, to try to keep them from that. He said their families were here, their homes were here, and for all they knew the only thing on the other side of that light was judgment and punishment. But the woman said no, that on the other side of the light was love and forgiveness. Remember that if and when you find yourselves in such a situation: don’t let the devil keep you from God. Amen, amen, amen.
Light is the domain of God, and darkness, tho’ tempting at times, is the domain of Satan. So when you find yourself dead and see that light, run to it. Amen, amen. It is here even now in life, as a light to renew thy faith – for faith is indeed failing, people – but if you walk in faith of it there will be no need to run. I am still waiting, tho’, for any to faithfully commit themselves to taking my hand.
There was a cloud discussed in the Qur’an which would settle for a time; and ye must realize, that cloud the Lord did Cause to settle thru’ His Allowance that Satan is able to work against thee. So it is not just the cloud of darkness based in fear, doubt, and anger which Satan did set against thee, but His Own Test of your faith as to whether you would allow that cloud to consume thee or overcome it and find belief here, and so renew thy faith. But Satan is working overtime now; he has dug in his claws to fuel denial of me even to the point where you are struggling harder and harder with each other. Or can ye not see that ?? Here is an example…
“Watch the ladies lose”, one said; but that is the view Satan has looked for all along, for Woman to lose – whereas I have stood for her all along despite her mistakes even tho’ I have tried to mend her, and so heal her. And Truly it has to do with mankind as a whole – yet where some may see it as frying bad eggs, I have seen it as sitting upon them to raise them. The chicken and the egg ?? If all thou doest in lieu of my saying this is call me a chicken, be careful: He may peck thine eyes out, for if thou art blind ye needeth them not.
If ye think that a threat, know it is but a warning. I stood up here in this to defend some women I find great joy in despite their faults – but Oneness ?? Open thine eyes before it is too late. Some say I did wreck their lives, not realizing reform is their only real option.
But then if you want to believe nothing is real and all is an illusion you probably won’t even accept that of me. Recondition thy beliefs today thru’ these teachings lest thou dost only fall along the way, astray. That is Satan’s one hope, and your denial does feed him.
Yet as long as we are on the subject of “ladies”, I was thrilled to watch the performances of young women in an NCAA gymnastic event. They were all winners in life, and I know it is their spirit which drives them; and even that, tho’ it is a worldly thing, does raise up one’s hopes. As I said, Hope is one of the three keys to a good and believing life; and it needs only Faith and Charity to complete it.
I was glad to see so many Americans turning to prayer on National Prayer Day. I should relate that the very year this day was instituted as such my parents did wed; and it should be clear that their union was not chance but a part of destiny, and that it was not just fate that I was born and raised in the heart of this very nation. But it should also be clear that it will be ill fate if I yet die at the hands of wicked men. I was especially heartened, tho’, to see one man sitting quietly to pray in church – wearing a t-shirt. Upon the back of his shirt was written, rather than “God bless America”, the words “America bless God” – and I will tell you, if you do that you will find there is blessing in it regardless of what nation you live in. Sing in praise unto the Lord, then, as I have asked you time and time again, and be gracious and cheerful in it; that it may Be!; thine own encouragement. Take it to heart: there is no better way to find that.
Amen, amen.
I figured this man had a chance to see these works and wondered if he took them to heart, but as I heard him curse I felt he had not.
Moussaoui was imprisoned for his
complicity in the events of 9/11, and he didn’t take it lightly. He swore a
curse against a people he had never taken the time to Truly
know, and so I am certain if God’s Wrath falls it will not be to Prove him. I
should say, then, Sir: be careful your curse does not fall back upon thine
ownself. You are obviously the one the Qur’an did Tell
me to listen for, who would call for such a thing to happen; but His Curse did
already loom, as this IS the end of that Appointed Time. I am Told, however, to keep looking for the good end to things;
and you should have realized the same, but rather you did only think of your
ownself. Search your heart for goodness. It is the Pious who have the greater
Promise; and my nation has many Muslims living in it in pious manner. Any who attack
it seeking ruin and destruction but bring down what they have built in piety;
and their work is the Work of the Lord. “Let no man bring asunder what God has
Brought together”; verily, by the Hand of God they have grown and still grow in
this nation – and it should have been your aim to look towards growth in other
nations rather than to be so defiant of this one, as the corruption this
country harbors is far less than many other nations. Are there any Muslims in
Verily, thy heart hath eyes and ears; and it is thine heart which must be open in order that thou mayest be healed. Yet regardless of thine own condition, thou knowest not mine – and so do I go on. See that thou doest the same in good and believing ways. Amen, amen.
Cain wants me to suffer, degraded, imprisoned, or killed, and is unwilling to confess that in the plight of others I was Made to stand.
And I am Able in standing for what is Right; but wouldst thou acknowledge it ??
What wouldst thou do in thine own free will today ??
Hopefully you won’t do today what some have done in the
past, picking and choosing what they wanted to use from this to make themselves
look good while ignoring the fact that they have left me out in the cold. I
would note those in some countries who claimed to be “good and pious” just to
get elected; but that same activity was going on throughout the world, even in
the
Chavez, for one; and I will touch upon him later here when I
discuss the history of
But President Bush has known all along where I was and could have come to me at any time. He chose to stand apart from me, tho’; for in knowing he once looked at my work as a drug and even banned me, and said he would leave office with the same beliefs he held when he took his oath, I must say he is failing to grow. “A caring soul in the midst of all the important issues” ?? If you see me as that why hast thou not upheld me when so many beset me in evil manner ?? Verily, you are talking backwards; trying to go back to what you had when this is the way forward, and logic and proportion are failing because of your failure to accept me. It does not mean you are a bad person; it means you need wake up and be of the Wise. But you are not the only one in the world who fell into that. I know you have done me some good; but you also caused me pain. That is why I turned to the Arab League in seeking reconciliation in Iraq; I knew you would not make amends with me, least not yet, as from the start you distanced yourself from me thinking it of no consequence when you should have stood on my behalf; and shame will be thy legacy if ye make not amends with me while I live and breathe. I was glad, however, to see you shake your cabinet and change advisors – but you should have come to me in good faith.
Yet I have faith that in good faith you can still bring thyself to that. Have faith, then, and make proper amends with me. Amen, amen.
But where
And that Cause is Made clear to Muslims in the Surah of Jihad.
So, “Key-Musabe”: will you see me
as your brother and listen today or not ?? Yes, it is “Tonto” again. I look upon
Wasted days and wasted nights, indeed. Show your love today. Amen, amen, amen.
I would call you “Sheik”, Abu – but only if you prove
yourself worthy of it as a humble man and a peacemaker. Cease fire. Obey me as
His Messenger in this. Come to a table in search of reconciliation and walk not
away from it without finding it, and let Jill Caroll
go free. Amen, amen. I heard your admission that your attacks have not been
effective; I heard your claim that sectarian violence is of benefit to you and
that you look to further press for division between Sunnis and Shiites to fuel
your dream of a civil war. But first of all the Qur’an points
out the evil of such “fuel” and so you are against Islamic belief in that.
Second of all, in seeking to “use” sectarian violence you are refuting the
Cause of finding Unity of Faith in enjoining al-Ma‘Ruf. Thirdly, your denial
has kept you from recognizing the point the Surah of Jihad makes of
reconciliation being the Cause which Islam needs to foster in
If so, look here and consider it well – that you might see it a step in Right Direction. Amen, amen, amen.
Tho’ the king returned to Nepal in hope of a new start for his people it has not yet come; and I commend him for his effort, but his success is paramount to overcoming the other plague which tears at his people – that of the communist insurgency which has rallied.
But tho’ some may say it was Meant
to be, I heard no response from Islam to my request that they offer assistance.
If the mujaheedan in
Yes, some Muslims say that as I believe in the Crucifixion they should not listen – yet my belief is based in things none did ever understand, which He Made me to see. I answered the question at the end of the Qur’an even while proving Muhammad carried salvation.
God only gives you what you need to know at the time, people. His Truths are on a need-to-know basis and have been Revealed to us piece by piece throughout history and even before, in those days we know little of. Find the Truth in that and so cling to it, brothers.
Amen, amen.
I would like to see the Arab League discuss the situation in Nepal and ask if the king will now accept their aid – but keep in mind, if you do go there on such a mission it is not a nation of Islam and if you die you will only find salvation in seeking the good end there, as I bid it of you – that “good end” being an end to the communist insurgency and the standing up of that nation in respect of you as brothers, that they better see your faith. It is a part of enjoining faith and so indeed a part of that ultimate goal. Do not get out of hand.
The battle Islam must carry today is not just one of Faith but of Faith and Reason, and that includes human rights and freedoms – something the communists do not carry but do give to military powers. It is not the communism Jesus taught but rather something which has been misconstrued by lack of faith, and the very reason the Qur’an points out that “communists” are enemies of God. Get this Straight, then, as His Cause. Tho’ I do preach “live and let live” He hath Set Limits in that due to lack of faith. While we are to justify our lives in living within good and believing ways, with corruption and disbelief there is always a battle to carry – and I have covered this before I felt the need to do so again. The greatest battles are won thru’ Faith and Reason combined; but my battle is to see yours Straightened, as they cannot prevail without this greater understanding and be True. Live and let live, then, that a greater peace forms in understanding – but know where thy True battles lay thru’ a reckoning of reason, that ye better understand the Truths of others.
Amen, amen, amen.
Really that ties to Jesus’ words of combating those who refuse to allow Him to reign in their hearts, wherein He did say “but those mine enemies, which would not that I should reign over them, bring hither, and slay them before me”… should I say the same ?? Truly it shows the battle of the faithful is to see that goodness of heart reigns thru’ His Servants even tho’ good must conquer evil, and the faithful, the faithless; and verily, Muhammad did so in dealing with the Arabs who denied him as he preached the Gospel. But do you not see that as was with him, any enemy of mine makes himself an enemy of God and Christ ?? By mercy and Truth are iniquities purged; better is a heart with righteousness than revenues without uprightness, and understanding is a wellspring of life unto he who hath it. “The heart of the wise teacheth his mouth, and addeth learning to his lips”: yet tho’ pleasant words are sweet to the soul and healthy for bones, men see things Right in different ways. Counsel of the heart IS like deep water, then; and a man of understanding WILL draw it out. Thus love not sleep but awaken and Be!; satisfied with this bread. “The lips of knowledge are a precious jewel”: I am Told not to recompense evil but to wait upon the Lord, so I do not wish to see enemies slain before me but hope for them to bring themselves to something better thru’ belief. Amen, amen. My heart is in the hands of the Lord, as a river of water – a shower of blessing which He Causes to flow, that in it your spirit may grow in Right ways. I scattered the wicked; and a wheel is come over them, to bring them to His Will. Are you one of them ?? Allow goodness to reign in thy heart, lest thou art held over that Fire in shame.
As I allow it, Mercy and Truth will preserve me even in death. But what have you done to answer goodly to that which I brought ??
Have you recognized it yet as being that which would renew you ??
That which the Qur’an does Say would bring you new life ??
That which so much of Scripture points to as being a healing part of the New Dawn, in a new song ??
Did you even sing in praise to the Lord today ??
And did you pray with all thy heart without denying me in thy prayers ?? Search your heart for goodness and find your reform, that thru’ that love finds thee and uplifts thee. Consider this song with open eyes, ears, hearts and minds, that it may heal thee. Amen.

that final end of doom. Bring a cease-fire in
The Qur’an did come to me for a Purpose, people. Accept it. Amen, amen, amen.
Yet still some call me a predator, when Truly it is that others prey upon me.
And still some call me a cancer, when Truly it is that the cancer is their denial.
Daniel 9:27… “and he shall make a firm covenant with many for one week: and in the midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease; and upon the wing of abominations shall come one that maketh desolate; and even unto the full end, and that determined, shall wrath be poured out upon the desolate”… that covenant I do carry, and it is firm in the Lord tho’ many seek to break it. Which one of you will do that ?? The desolation will follow if that you do, “and that determined”… Determined, that being done thru’ His Decision. Wake up. As for “one week”, that is but a span of time without bounds to God except if He doth Give it bounds. But as for the first “he”, and the second “he”, do you them one and the same ?? And do you not see that one to come is not here yet ?? Remember, prophecies are parables; that Covenant is Rested in me, and I am not the one who shall break it; but Daniel 11 tells of that one. As Daniel 12 relates, only the Wise will understand; so I cannot hope for all to realize that. But I am Michael.
Be!; the Wise, here today.
Know that I am that spirit of Truth prophesied. Let
he who has an ear hear what I say to the congregations: those who conquer their
mind thru’ their heart in believing me will eat of the Tree of Life in
Check your Scripture. I have the manna; I have the stone, and am the stone; and I will be Made into that pillar – with or without you.
Amen, amen, amen.
But if all you can say is that I am stoned, or if you can do is stone me, screw you.
No; my words are not smooth at all.
But Truth Is, the “Wicked Priest” Enoch told of is at work and has friends, and their smooth words cause many to deny me. Know thy God, then, and know I am one who imparts knowledge of Him which can save thee. I have been made to stumble but have had help from others; and that too is in Scripture. But there is a “refining”, a “cleansing”, and a “whitening” to do. Who will help me ??
And when will
Will they only tell me “so long”, and only see it when it is too late ??
Whatever; from Daniel 9:27 it should be seen that whatever Wrath He Spends today will be whatever He Deems necessary.
And yes, it is the same with me, in His Guidance. On the whole I am a loving and caring man; but it is not my fault that those who deny me see not that what I say against some people is only due to my love for those others they are harming – so please think about it.
Satan is the one to blame for that, for he pushes even believers to deny me as he whispers into their hearts – and he is but scratching his back with his tail in anger, looking for a way to rise thru’ your denial of me. So don’t let him get to you. Know I am a good soul.
There is enough here that proves that if you but take it to heart of your own accord, and I am not whispering but talking, and singing, and shouting. That is what a man of God is Meant to do, so that people may hear and find belief, and so replant themselves in Faith.
But if still you have found no belief in me, are you wearing earplugs, or what ?? Are you a horse with blinders, or what ?? Some did call me a bigot and every bad name they could think of – but they learned not to tame their tongues, and so those names are their own.
Verily, there are many in the world who think like me but none who could have found the understanding I hold: because that they live mostly in their biases and so are not fully open to the Lord. It was a blessing I received in coming to this, tho’ many call me cursed.
But their own arrows of denial have come from that cursed bow. Don’t listen to them, then. Verily it is that many only think me unwilling to listen to anyone, as I am outspoken to those who refuse to recognize my good reason – but I listen to many, and Truly those who argue against me only set us back in all the good things I have stood for; and in that they do have no real faith nor reason.
But if you had come to me in good fashion you would have found I would have listened to you and helped you to see that which you do not. Yet vain are understandings that do not seek growth. Understand that; it is the True road to good ends and new beginnings.
Amen, amen.
Verily, if still it does come to my being “cut off in the wilderness” – even as I am now, somewhat – and that end coming in a flood of events which bring destruction, it is not His Plan but is in His Plan as a Recourse – for He does Know mankind is unthinking.
But I have told you I am that heir of Daniel; believe it, and read the last verse of Chapter 12.
To accept admonition when it is reasonable and faithful is to give yourself a chance to grow; but to refuse it denies your growth. Noah’s people argued unfaithfully and refused to listen to him; and verily, many others of the past I could say the same of here today.
Yet I should ask: do you think a Messenger of God should accept the admonition of disbelievers ??
Not when they are merely trying to refute him in his work.
But if all you can say is that I should listen to all your admonitions, still you are arguing. You have no idea how many people ranted and raved in ignorance of these things while I simply chose not to rebuke them. Many of them seem to have gotten past all that now.
But all His Chosen have faced denial. Eventually, tho’, the deniers find their desires were not of His Plan. In Noah’s case God despised the world; they made Him Wrathful, and He set aside His Love in order to start the world anew; and many today are being as they.
So shake it off, and be not as them. Still His Curse does loom, but it is His Desire we find the good end and get past it. Amen, amen.
But if you will not help to find good ends and new beginnings, no matter what they bring you in life you will find sorrow in death.
Believe that, and read on. Amen, amen.
As for the woman with the $5 inhaler, as I saw the new medical plan come out I had to wonder if it covers partial payment for inhalers – and as I know other companies charge a much higher price for theirs, I thought it unfair that they should be reimbursed thru’ such a plan when you would not be even tho’ the patient might well be out-of-pocket the same. So I thought, tho’ it is well and good you offer such a low price and that should be kept to for those whose medical plans, if they have one, do not lend partial payment, for those whose plans do I did wonder if you should not charge a higher rate and so afford yourself the opportunity to expand your business or even venture out in other ways to help people. I don’t know, perhaps it is not really feasible – but it is at least an idea to think about.
God bless you. Amen, amen.
The spiritual realm in itself is a conscient existence; therefore your conscience and sub-conscience are a part of it. Don’t con yourself but realize that spiritual teachings are a science, and so they belong in school even as they belong in life. Amen, amen, amen.
Remembrance ?? I would remind you of what the Qur’an said of that “believing woman” who would offer herself unto me – that the angels knew not what would come of it. And I have said before, I do feel a woman is within her rights to offer herself. But tho’ I like to think the woman I love would do that, I also know the crux of the matter is rested upon the love mankind holds as a whole, or as Woman; and whether that love will be fostered or lost even the angels do not know, but you know what has been Said of foster-children.
If not, it is simply caring for lost children. But note: all things of prophecy are played out except those of the end of doom in its final hour, and if His Decision is of His Grace and His Mercy instead of His Wrath that end should not fall, because that ye did listen and grow on the whole. The “on the whole” thing is tricky, tho’, as with technology today it doesn’t take much to bring ruin, and so technology must be safe-guarded. Yet not all love me, nor may they worship me; but all that will come to the beast if he takes you from me.
Worship God and God Alone, then, regardless of what comes. If He comes you will know it, for all things shall fall before Him as He comes upon the clouds to render His Judgment after the Rapture. For the faithful who follow me here, tho’ those tribulations will bring much pain, that end will be a blessing which shall wash away those pains – but as for those who deny me it will be much worse.
God bless, that ye shall not be one to deny me. Amen, amen, amen.
Dr.
And while I have said that I am not a Prophet but a
Messenger, even Dr.
I think it should be your own voluntary measure today, then, at least to recognize me as a Teacher and Instrument of the Lord.
But speaking of voluntary measures again, I should add again
my concern that tho’
In the Laws of God we are all responsible unto one another, and I am tired of hearing the arguments against that. Bring good change.
Amen, amen.
I heard a man from Amnesty International speak from a
renowned
I sat to hear the sermon of an elderly lady today. Her heart was kind and caring, and I did listen to her and pray with her with great heart. She had basically grown up in the church and had preached for years – and she told that after a good many of those years she came to find that she had not had the right attitude about her, but that she changed that. We all need to find change within ourselves as we live our lives, for without that we lose heart in seeking change and become complacent – and having seen her just as she was I said that her husband was a lucky man to have her. Whether she knew I was talking not just of her earthly husband but of Christ I know not.
But what she said in parting was that in her younger years she had been arrested several times for participating in rallies of protest.
Well, darlin’, I know the feelin’; some wanted to have me locked up too. But while I have stood to lend my voice in hope for the souls and lives of others, where did my life go ?? The denial of others did cause my heart to toil, that I may prove myself even as He bid me do; but He hath Made it easy for me, for tho’ I care for so many while many care not for me, my heart and soul are healed.
So it doesn’t matter whether you think I have been successful or not. I have; and He will further Prove me, for I am His Right Hand.
Believe it or not, it shall be Proven to you one day.
“Take my hand… run with me… I’ll stay with you…”… a beautiful rock song another man came up with today, it does draw from these things in faith… but in light of that I would have you to think back upon the concept of “no child left behind”… if you took my hand to walk with me you would not have to be running now to catch up… and still there is time for you to catch up, and so take my hand and walk with me… and there is not one of you I have not lent something to here in order that they might do so… but it is not fair to those who prove themselves as children of God for me to stand around waiting for those who merely want to sit there in ignorance and refute me… so I will not stay with them, because that they refuse to prove themselves in good and believing ways…
Truth Is, many do not want to claim themselves as children of God: so it is that in their own free will they leave themselves behind.
And if that is the case, they did prove themselves not as children of God, and so I left no child behind. It is not of your young ones, but of the grown who should be able to know better than to deny it. The young ones are on your hands to raise up in all good faith; but if ye cannot in His Eyes prove thy faith as good in acceptance of these Truths I did bring you are leading them only to harm.
But verily, even some who claim themselves as children of God, and feel that in their heart, refuse to accept that understandings must grow in order that good ends and new beginnings are found in good faith – and they are allowing Unity to slip from their grasp.
Yet you have here another chance to get up, get on the path, take my hand, and walk in faith aright. Take that chance, and so realize: this is the beat, and heartbeat, of a different drummer, offering his contribution unto the world in clear sight of God. Amen, amen.
If you cannot read thru’ this today without ending up angry your ass is sorry indeed; but those who find joy in it will be blessed.
As for me, I have already found great joy – regardless of what others have said of me.
“Wounded in the head”… do you only see it that I am sick, or do you realize it was that “wound” which Saved me and so Revealed to me these Truths ?? Yes, I might still only be killed and so further wounded: yet if so I will have my place in Paradise, and the ones who bring my end here will be damned – while the rest of you would be left to suffer the rest of what man finds ahead in denying me. Have faith in these things; but worship me not, nor any other man. Worship God Alone: thru’ that may your prayers be Answered.
Amen, amen.
For any of those who still think whatever Book they hold up is the only source of Truth, let me give this: “a wholesome tongue is a tree of life.” Figure out where that comes from if you can, but if all you can say is that I am perverse your own tongue is being perverse.
I would note that I have seen many versions of the Bible, and all show conflict here or there. Some wish to say it is Truth all-in-all, but if you cannot see those conflicts are a thing of Satan’s grip you are refusing to see Truth. I suggest you go back to the scrolls and iron those differences out rather than preaching from one or the other without doing so, as in such you spread that confusion.
I stuck around home a bit longer in order to see my other niece married; and I still have my daughter’s wedding to try to attend, but I know not where you might find me next as after that I might well be living on the road. Perhaps I will find you, if you fail to find me.
Well, the “tag-teams” are still at work dogging me and trying to lead you astray.
As I heard one fool make fun of the little smiley face I sign off with here I thought to say: thy face was to join me in pure fashion, not to ridicule me – so if the only smile you can find to wear is one thru’ which to laugh at me or hide your deceit you are headed for hell.
While it is True a soft answer turns away wrath but a grievous answer stirs anger, a soft answer does not always lend reform – and those who would rather be wrathful than find needed reform only damn themselves. It is a wise man indeed, then, whose tongue useth knowledge aright. The Eyes of the Lord thy God are upon us, beholding evil and good; which will He See now in you ??
“He that regardeth reproof is prudent”; I have discussed Prudence before and shown it to be wise; and verily, in a house of the righteous is much treasure; but in revenues of the wicked IS trouble. Where is your treasure invested ?? Have you spent wisely to charitable causes to further that which I led in, or have you but spent of your time, your money, and your resources merely trying to prove the reproofs I gave wrong ?? It would be Best to regard this work with honor, for indeed, “the lips of the righteous disperse knowledge” – and this I have done. But have your hearts lent to the Cause ?? The Lord Set me upright, and so my prayers are His delight; but have your sacrifices only become abominations to Him, as ye refused to heed me ?? I love the Lord my God, and He Loves me: because that I follow after righteousness. But “correction is grievous unto him that forsaketh the way; he that hateth reproof shall die; a scorner loveth not one that reproveth Him, nor will he go unto the wise”; my reproofs were indeed scorned, and few came to me who could have. Thus corrections I gave in admonition were grievous for some, and they who have hated it are near unto death of their own spirit if it has not already come; but he who hath understanding seeketh knowledge !! Did you seek greater understanding with me, or were you one whose mouth was fed in foolishness ?? Verily, “hell and destruction are before the Lord”; it is in His Decision such may be loosed because of denial. But if you let this sink in and better understand it, it shall be cheerful countenance: for your hearts may still be Made merry as is mine. “Better is little with the fear of the Lord than great treasure and trouble therewith”; I fear the Lord only because that I know He may yet throw down His Wrath upon thee, but the treasure of my heart gives me no trouble within. The only trouble that has come has been from those who treasured other things: so let this Be!; a dinner of herbs for thee, that ye find the love held within it – for otherwise thou shalt be a stalled ox, with hatred in thy heart. He that is slow to anger indeed appeases strife; but the wrathful stir it up, and when one is too slow he leaves behind only thorns. Be a righteous man, then, that thy aim is Made plain in due time as you should have seen by now has been with mine. Despise not thy mother but love her even in her faults; yet know those who are destitute of True wisdom find their joy in folly, and it is a man of understanding who does walk uprightly. Amen, amen.
“Without counsel purposes are disappointed: but in the multitude of counselors they are established”; do ye not see that “multitude of counselors” does depict His Messengers, Prophets, and Teachers, and His angels, and those of the Sonship ?? “A word spoken in due season, how good it is”; this was due season, and that should be clear for a people who believe. I lent to you insight to the way of life and am Meant to find joy from having done so; and while it is True the words of the pure are pleasant, this is even True of their admonitions if such are taken to heart. Divorce thyself from past ways, then, and Be!; not a house of the proud who but live in sin of their pride, but a house of the widow – for in greed you bring trouble to your own house. If still you harbor old things in preference to what I have brought, be a widow unto them – for this is to be a death of old ways of life and a birth of new !! That goes back to the Quero; but “he that hateth bribes shall live”; it is a part of reform to see that it comes in good fashion and not corrupt manner. “The heart of the righteous studieth to answer”; I studied and answered to the wickedness which rose against me and you should have been studying with me – for indeed, “the ear that heareth the reproof of life abideth among the wise… he that refuseth instruction despiseth his own soul… but he that heareth reproof getteth understanding”; have you heard these things today or did you let them go in one ear and out the other ?? “The fear of the Lord is the instruction of wisdom”; indeed, I started here with telling you to fear the Lord, and those who honored that have shown their humble nature – but those others, who honored it not, are faced with their own humiliation.
But do you think I was boastful to claim I am His Messenger ??
Nay; it was not boastful but a part of my need to awaken you, that you might listen and so understand. It has been my duty unto God to give this – and it is your duty to accept it – altho’ some still think they can ignore me, and even persecute me, and get away with it.
Kenny Rogers once said something to the effect of what a great songwriter does is take a story of life and make something beautiful out of it. Well, if you cannot see I have done that to great extent here by now you are missing the point; but this has been about my life and the lives of many in the world, and if you had stayed with it and taken it to heart you would have seen great beauty in it. It is not just some story, tho’; it is that “book of life” discussed in the first paragraph of Daniel 12, and so you would be wise to learn from it.
Amen. Great songs do lend belief in God and restore faith in loving ways; yet faith is not always restored thru’ love.
But if you would talk country music with me, try this on for size: “Wasted days and wasted nights”; “Why should I stop loving you?”; “Why should I call your name, when you’re to blame for making me blue?” Basically these words are sung of love lost, where one reminisces of another who has let them down; songs which show that tho’ one looks down upon another for what he or she does, they still have love in their hearts; and if you think about it, that is exactly how God looks at us even tho’ we do anger Him. And yes, some of you have made me blue; but there is enough love in my heart that I can get past that. Yet my point is, when you have love in your heart for another whether it is returned or not, others may see that and find love in their hearts – and thus love is never wasted.
What do you think Jesus’ purpose was in that one day if not to prove His love for His enemies as they hung Him on that cross ??
After all they did, He prayed for them and asked God to Forgive them – but Forgiveness is of the Lord’s, and I don’t think He did.
Instead I see it that they suffered for what they did to Jesus; proof, of God’s Wrath. But if not for Muslims, whom God did Raise thru’ Muhammad, the Jews might well have been lost to us forever as I made plain in my last notes; proof, of His Mercy. Do you deny it ??
Regardless, this “eye-for-an-eye, tooth-for-a-tooth” confrontation between Jews and Muslims did not come to a boil until the Jews were given a sovereign state; and that is only because both peoples argued over the land instead of feasting upon the harmony which existed between them in earlier years, as I pointed out while covering Palestine’s history – and if it starts again it will be that “boiling water” spoken of in the Qur’an, and will be poured upon both for denying me. I am Trustworthy, and True; let that sink in.
“It is better to dwell in a corner of the house top”; well, I have done that for long as I worked upon the Roof: yet I still wait to see who will join me in mine efforts. “Oh Happy Day” it will be, brothers, if you find the harmony and unity that exists between you – so find it that day today. Open eyes and ears and turn to be healed, that you better learn Right from wrong. Amen, amen. I am Lessoned in His Truths and under His Guidance, and the Best guidance is that of He Who Is, in His Many Names. Please try to understand and follow these things. I label none as being of false faith but insist all hold some share of His Truths and need only renew their faith thru’ the common things between them. Yes, some might label that as “Unitarianism” (which I will discuss later); but attitudes toward me need change, and attitudes between the different religions needs change. Just don’t let the atheists and demon-worshippers drag you down. Indeed, some of them have already infiltrated churches. Satan would rather you held onto old beliefs and remain in clouds of differences than hear what the Lord would have you see in me, as he loses in your acceptance of me. Be!; the Wise; “Strange Encounters” may be True of beings from the host you understand not, but one of the Sonship should be a “Majestic Encounter”…
Just don’t go tryin’ to seat me on a throne.
“Stone soup” ?? Well, while some may think I am stoning them here others will see that we are all stones and need allow Him to mold us. I was happy to see the story of children dressed as vegetables who thru’ will and grace did come to learn a giving nature is more important than material desire (“out of the mouth of radishes”). I commend those who brought it out. God bless you. Amen, amen.
One heart made a point from Scripture concerning shoes which I would expand upon here.
SHOES:
Set Hearts Onto Every Stage.
Stretch Hearts Over Every Soul.
Sanctify Him Over Earth’s Sovereign.
Soulful Hearts Obey Eternal Supremacy.
Salvaged Hearts Offer Eternal Salvation.
Strong Hearts Orbit Every Soul.
Indeed, to walk in faith of such is like wearing God’s Own Shoes. And you might think of the little ol’ lady who lived in a shoe and of the many children she cared for, but there are two more pair of shoes left which I must discuss here.
Save His Ordained and Eminent Servants.
Satan Hates Our Every Sacrifice.
Shoes, indeed; or maybe these are your socks; so I will ask, are your socks dirty ??
If you claim to be walking in faith yet deny me you are wearing the second of these two and need reform thyself. Amen, amen.
Satan Hates Our Every Sacrifice; this isTrue of any Righteous sacrifice, but none moreso than those of His Chosen. There is nothing here good and believing souls cannot take to heart and find reform in without arguing, but it is a battle of hearts and minds – the battle of the heavens. Sinful Hatred Opposes Every Servant: if you don’t like this try walking in my shoes. I hate none, but many hate me.
A bit more history, then…
When I was first born, upper-echelon Catholics were still saying the Protestant religions which rose up in the 1600’s were nothing but heresy and their preachers heretics, as they interpreted things for themselves instead of holding to the Vatican’s “official” opinions.
But look into my eyes and tell me, what do you see ?? You can’t do that without visiting me, so don’t start now – but look into your heart and tell me, is there room there for me ?? Is it that hard for people to allow a voice of reason and faith to step into their lives ??
The thing is, while one man argued against the idea of Jesus having left a bloodline by arguing another’s opinion that Jesus had intended for Mary Magdalene to take over the church he brought up that in the Bible it is Written, that Peter was designated to be the one upon whom the church was founded. Well, my first consideration would be to check the old scrolls and see if that is actually held in them; but it doesn’t matter one way or the other. First of all the body of Christ is founded in Jesus. Secondly, if you wish to say that Peter’s “founding” is Roman Catholicism I would ask: how is it Peter died ?? Truth Is, even as things are so clear to see they are hidden from the eyes of your understanding. The early Romans hid many things, tho it matters little to me. I see clearly; do you ?? I am not attacking Catholics; but the man I noted as arguing here said Catholics were but “trying to please the Bishop” even as he insinuated them to be heretics. Get a life, dude.
Really it is that tho’ I see some constructive criticism in the arguments against me and take that into consideration, most of the arguments I hear are not even worth repeating as they are no more than sheer slander. I will not conform to you, for my place is with God.
One thing should be clear here concerning the Catholic faith,
tho’. Early Romans, remiss in faith and carrying unfaithful ways, were ultimately
destined to keep Christianity alive. If the Jewish priests had been Given their way the works of Jesus would have been lost – so
let me take you to Acts. These events followed Christ’s walk in the
And it was, after that, for many, many years. The Lord had
used the lust of power which
To save His Chosen people from extinction !!
Do you not see, then, that God uses evil intentions of men for His Own Purposes ?? It is not something He wants from you nor leads you to, but something He anticipates. As you are plotting evil schemes, He Is plotting against you; remember ?? In like manner, as you do good things He plots good things for you; but evil men generally cause Him discourse, and so recourse. The end is not set in stone.
Reverend Neuhaus and Rabbi Lerner,
along with some others, sat discussing things on Easter morning which touched
base on a number of my teachings. Perhaps they see it that I am of the
“Religious Right” – but even in the minor differences they held I was glad to
hear how much they had in common with me and how they had recognized the common
bonds between different beliefs. Yet it was not just
I would note that one Muslim cleric touched upon the subject of abortion today, to say that initially a fetus is not considered to have been Given the breath of life and so it is not deemed to be a sin to have an early abortion if the conditions Truly do make it necessary.
And Truly that is like unto that which I said myself a year ago – so I am grateful, brother, to have heard it from you. Amen, amen.
Yet for any who might still be thinking to make an “abortion” of me, you had Best see: I am Given the breath of life. Lay off.
One evangelist was referring to me as the spirit of God, a gift to the body of Christ (the Church). Well, I am not God but His Servant, and it is not one church I serve but all, in search of Unity in Faith. Yet those who refuse His Gifts generally become immoral and but tend to degrade themselves, and such is what some have come to in denying me. I was happy to hear some refer to me as a Gift, then; but you might note what the Urantia book says of Michael waiting for “the time of unification”: this IS that same time, and it can come; but only if on the whole mankind allows it, thru’ me, in free will. Find destiny with me or a worse fate of your own, then.
It is ridiculous that some priests think that if they are not the ones who anoint you or baptize you, you cannot find everlasting life. In Him we live and move and have our being; but those who recognize it not will be found wanting at the end of their roads.
Jesus’ greatest teaching, perhaps, was life in example of lovingkindness.
Muhammad’s greatest teaching, perhaps, was life in example of righteous war against the unfaithful.
But in Oneness the two must come together, along with all other Right teachings. I just don’t understand how people can be so ignorant as to not see this – but understand, you can allow understanding to lead you in lovingkindness or denial to lead you in failure.
The Postman ?? Mail’s slow ?? Well, someone needs to do somethin’ about that, huh ?? How ‘bout it, Fo Lin Merc ?? What will be the Law ?? There’s gonna be peace ?? Live and let live ?? Who knew what “P.S.” stood for, and who was it that did stand upright ??
P.S. – Post Script, indeed, but also Post Scripture, in Pure Science and recognition of the Pathway to Salvation. Amen, amen.
Of course “The Postman” was but a story; but if true who would believe it fate by chance, and who would believe it destiny ?? Verily, while the story does not really apply to my beginnings it is not totally devoid of a part in understanding that. But call me not a liar; you know not how I came to this nor what else is in store, with or without me – but stand by me against the tyrannous. Amen, amen.
One woman I know has seen me in great light and has said she is ever so thankful to have come to know me, for she believes in her heart these things are True on the whole and that I am indeed all those things I have claimed to be. But she knows I am also a target, and was trying to tell me I need to lay low and wait for people to catch up and get Right in their manners. Well, tho’ that is all fine and well and quite possibly a good idea it is something I cannot really do, for a number of reasons. Yet I hope things will work out.
But obviously still there are those who feel I do not belong and so are either hoping and praying for my demise or thinking I should get on with my life and start over, leaving behind all I was to gain. They are on the verge of damning themselves and need change their tune; but still I pray for them lovingly, despite their indifference. I have love for any who will but accept it of me openly – yet I will not accept your denial, and neither will He, for it is Made clear in the Qur’an what will come of that. My family, tho’, is dear.
I would point out my concerns for my nation, tho’, and those will be made more clear as you read on. Most Americans are good people, and the majority of those have faith. Yet the people have somewhat lost their voice and it is my aim to see that they get it back – for verily, this country is run in great part by unthinking officials, big business, and even mobsters. There are good and believing people in that mix, but the level of corruption has risen over the years – and my fight is a Revival which Americans need stand with me in.
Yet for any other nation to sit back and gloat,
throwing disdain upon my country for this, is disrespectful unto my aim – and they
need realize their countries have similar problems as well and are just as
caught up in this as
Amen, amen. Remember that later when you see the song of revival below.
A few old friends visited me on my birthday and in the days that followed, bringing with them a few others; but none I hoped to come and ask of my needs or offer assistance did show. I got a new guitar from my little brother; but this work is my nest egg and my seed. Yet some in sin of pride and denial still choose to steal from me. Whatever; I visited a small congregation I have grown fond of on Easter Sunday; and before that I went there on Good Friday to see the movie “The Passion” for the first time. Let me tell you, if you cannot sit and watch that movie and realize Jesus fell because of the refusal of men of power to acknowledge the Truth you will never know the Truth of Christ; and the same goes for me, in that those of power have been the most influential in keeping me at bay.
But I was in pain myself as Jesus suffered beneath the lashes of their whips, to the point where I could not sit; I leaned upon the pew in front of me, praying as I watched Him suffer. I was glad when the movie ended as the pain subsided and I could sit up and even stand again, but it was an experience I shared in ways you cannot imagine. A minister did stand up after the movie to say that he goes thru’ great pains in preparing his sermons, to ensure that what he gives is Right as far as he knows it to be; and I commend him for it. After a short sermon we gathered in front of a wooden cross to hammer a nail into it for ourselves – and yes, some might call that blasphemy. Even a few of us there had second thoughts as to whether to participate in it or not, myself included; for in seeing it before us to do we first felt that to do so would be to participate in shaming Christ. One woman stepped away in heavy tears afterward, and I consoled her. The way I see it, we were not shaming Jesus but merely accepting a part of that burden to carry ourselves. And actually I have asked people to do just that before.
Do so yourself, then. Cling not to the death of His Chosen for salvation but carry a part of their burden, that they carry yours easier – for it is as True for the least of God’s children as it is for the greatest, and is why we have a responsibility to help in each other’s needs.
Keep in mind there have been many of His Covenants, and all were Extended thru’ His Chosen. Some have named them as the Edenic, being the covenant of the Garden, before the original sin; the Adamic, being that which the Lord afforded after Adam and Eve were cast out of the Garden; the Noabic, for Noah; the Mosaic, for Moses; the Davidic, for David; Abraham and Jesus held covenants as well, and yes, even Muhammad, and Buddha, and a few others I could name. Each of them offered redemption thru’ holding faith above work, spiritual progression above old beliefs and material possessions; and each has an everlasting effect tho’ each normally builds upon the last. The “Everlasting Covenant” that some proclaim, then, is only kept thru’ recognition of those Covenants when they come in the course of time – for while Salvation offers an element of safety, security, preservation, deliverance, and wholeness, nothing is everlasting without renewal – and that is what His Servants present: rebirth, in Faith. In that there are blessings of His Pardon, Justification, Right knowledge, Resurrection of spirit, Regeneration of mankind, Assurance thru’ obedience, Adoption thru’ love, Sanctification thru’ His Mercy and Grace and thru’ our own, and Glorification of humanity thru’ its glorification of the Lord God. Glorification is the final work of redemption; yet always are there those who will refuse it, so it becomes a matter of how mankind answers it as a whole, according to those to whom it was presented. Man falls when he fails to accept His Covenants when they are clearly in sight, for only thru’ that is a believer brought into the fullness of the glory of God. Basically a Covenant is extended thru’ the outpouring spirit of His Chosen, and if accepted it brings healing and miracles in abundance and restores man access to the Tree of Life – but it is True, for society to reject a Covenant as a whole does lead to the curse of all curses: His Curse of the tribulations, and of His Judgment. Covenants do have Terms, then, not only which govern them in religious practice but in Appointed Times – and if you are unwilling to repent not only of your sins but of your denial unto me, you will suffer of it. Man must willing receive what has come to him here thru’ me.
The Covenants of the Lord are what preserve the glory of God and direct mankind’s aim – and it is a part of Eternal Law to recognize those Covenants and adhere to them, for in that alone may you reach Divine Providence regardless of your mistakes. Note, then, that Divine Providence is marked by universality. “He Made the little and the great, and He hath equally care of all”; the little and the great means more than people, but even beliefs – and there are bonds between them to find. Your destiny, my brothers, is to realize these Truths and find that new beginning today thru’ Unity of Faith; but if you fail in that, your fate will be that dreaded end of doom.
Fail me not, then. The time is ripe for unification to begin, and my Calling and Charge is to lend to that. Amen, amen. Years from now, if this is properly recognized and people on the whole do Truly atone for their sins and mend their ways, this will come to be known as the Michaelic Covenant – and I pray that it does, for otherwise denial shall be the fall of man. Faith is not just a passive attitude of trust in beliefs one is handed but observance and active obedience to the terms of the active Covenant – and you should note, the word “if” is often attached to any covenantal promise. So I ask that ye practice these things as sacrifices: righteousness, lawful enjoyment, giving of thanks and praise unto the Lord, good deeds and fellowship in witness and living sacrifice, and fulfillment of priesthood in these teachings: that broken spirits heal. Peace be with thee: God Willing, you will realize that if such sacrifices prevail in your hearts and lives you will find the Lord’s Salvation awaits thee, and if you realize I am of that spirit of Truth and about my Father’s Work you will find Salvation in it. Amen, amen, amen.
Peace be with thee; in free will art thou obliged to realize it.
PEACE.
I was also pleased to see the Lodge accepting women into its ranks. As I said, Solomon broke from that practice when he built his temple; but those who helped establish him in the Order had felt that as women are “helpmates” they should be a part of such things.
Just remember, tho’, that it is not about mere socializing. There is real work ahead of us to tend to. Amen, amen, amen.
But have some only thought it curiosity which drives me ??
Not at all. I am a man with a mission, in my Calling. Do not deny me.
Evolution ?? Creation of the soul came not from lifeless matter but was the breath of life the Lord God did Breathe into Adam and Eve, the very breath of life which the Almighty does Breathe into each of us before birth, and is what gives to us our superior intellect.
Funny; for long
And I pushed long for religious morals and teachings to be introduced in the schoolroom as a science. I have found many supporting that now as a new, fledgling, movement; and I would note, I did find that the Masons and even Catholics, as noted by Pope Pius XII, see religion as a science. I would note as well that Pius looked upon Genesis in similar fashion as do I – that it was a simple, metaphorical understanding Lent to a simple people who needed no more than that. Yet in today’s world people have been turning away from that understanding because of scientific findings. As Pius said, Genesis lent not a modern understanding; and so science has taken away from religion when it should have proved to support it. Genesis does, however, give principal Truths which are a fundamental part of any understanding; and that is why I married them, so that you might realize the two, in all actuality, do complement each other.
But it was said that intelligent design theory “can be kept out of classrooms by ruling that school boards have acted with religious motives”; yet for God-fearing people that is how they should act, and any judge who strikes it down is remiss in his faith. I heard one say its endorsement is a risk, that it is a minority view which goes against the consensus; and I don’t know who’s friggin’ consensus these idiots were talkin’ about but if the majority of people wish to strike down the Lord I gotta say, He Will Strike them down. Besides, is this not a nation which supports minorities ?? This is my fight; some have joined me in at least this, but none have stood as disciples.
And it frustrates me to see people still so caught up in their material desires that they will not stand with me for what is Right.
The Catholic Church does pray to St. Michael to defend them
in the prayers after Low Mass, noting him to be especially powerful in rescuing
souls from the snares of the devil – particularly at the hour of death. They
claim him to be the guardian of the “
But no; human tendencies are not wholly good, and that is why one must seek to carry himself in grace.
“Visit your wife again and I’ll kill you” ?? Only a fool would think to say or do such to me, as he would burn in hell if he succeeds – but that is exactly what Satan would have you to do, as he cares nothing for your soul. Here I am, tho’. Follow him or follow me.
There are levels of Creation, both rational and irrational,
and even man shares a part of this – for his free will is often given to his
animal instinct. If you wish to find yourself in
The greatest of those is piety. Please see that you learn that today, and so prove yourself thru’ pious ways toward me. Let not pride of thine ownself reign in thy mind or in thy words but admit that thou hast faults, and so go on in faith as have I. Amen, amen, amen.
God hath placed within man the tendencies necessary for the preservation, development, and continuation of the human race as individuals, for example, taste and liking for food, or the attraction between a man and a woman. Yet as in free will most are unruly those things are in disorder; and so man tends to seek pleasure contrary to reason and the laws of God, and so is he sinful.
So as I have discussed individual rights and freedoms, I must say that Truly man is not free to do as he pleases in the eyes of God but is bound to the voice of reason and faith which His Chosen Servants carry, and to that he must answer in order to find Salvation.
Amen, amen.
Even as I push Charity one must note that while temporal welfare of society in material things is goodly to see to, promotion of spiritually eternal principles, and so Eternal Law, is just as deep a concern. One’s well-being does not mean his inner being is wholly well, and it goes back to the practice of denying one’s self of material things in order to build upon spiritual ones – yet we do have material needs, as this is a material world we must abide within during this temporary existence called life. Learn better to care, and to share.
Amen, amen.
“Spiritual; indescribable”; Father Tom’s words after spending time in the delivery room. Congratulations, brother. I had the same feeling myself long ago as I stood in like manner to help deliver mine own child. Again I will say, then, that the Qur’an notes one cannot hope for his children to save him – so maybe I cannot hope for anyone to save me from the wiles of the wicked who eventually steal from any they can and unthinkingly kill any they want, but with God all things are possible. Yet I will add that one must strive to save others thru’ good and believing ways. So I ask you again to sit with me, and stand by me, in seeking to reform the ways of the world.
Amen, amen.
As I have said before, money is not the root of evil but greed is. Thus those of you with money should know not to be greedy with it.
And those of you with money and children should know, the best thing that you can ever leave to your children is a world renewed in faith. But it seems many religious scholars are so engrossed in their ideas of the land of milk and honey, they don’t want to hear me.
How’s that song go ??
“Winnie the Pooh doesn’t know what to do, got a honey jar stuck on his nose”; remember that song ?? The day is disappearing all too soon, indeed; for I have been denied, and the branches are now lit in reflection as if by the moon. But if you recognize not my wisdom, who else will you pose your questions to other than some horse’s ass ?? Please consider the song as the source of that: not to put ol’ Eeyore down, as I love him; but he was never really quite sure of himself, and surely you remember what I said of Pooh and his friends where they relate to each of you. But someone said that as one I rebuked had a Ph.D. and taught in a university it was obvious that he was right, and that I was wrong. Well, let me remind you Einstein was thrown out of college by professors who listened not, and Jesus suffered at the hands of supposed scholars even as He had been their teacher. There is no paper you hold given by the hand of men that proves me wrong; the things I give are of the Unknown, in the Oneness none have accepted nor realized: and it is time to accept it.
And it is time as well to realize: the more you argue against me, the greater chance the dragon has to be replenished.
Yes, some will think only to say God leaves nothing to chance; but the Truth Is, because that you have free will you have choices, and so your choices are what presents chance. Thus His Work Is on-going; or did you think He Rests always, or even that He Is dead ??
Remember when the disciples sat in their room with the doors locked, lest people might stone them ?? They had carried weapons long, to keep from an untimely demise – and so it is with me now. I carry mine own sword, because that none have carried it for me.
But live by the sword, die by the sword ?? It will be by thine own sword you die if you wield it against me – and that is something to take to mind, concerning Manifest Truth. If your search has but led you to seek to ruin me you will burn in that Fire, as in such as that there is nothing at all of what you were to find in searching your heart for goodness, nor in finding reform. Rather it is as I noted before from the Qur’an, that my family will be exalted. At the time I thought it to merely mean my family by blood – but now I know, that it is my family by virtue of your marriages to me within your own beliefs which was Truly discussed there. Amen, amen.
Yet it is True: we all lose sight of faith, and of God; of love, and of goals. But at some point you must find it again and go on.
Charlie Sheen was talking today about his divorce and the custody battle for his children; and I had to wonder if he would realize how much the things he had to say about that did fit with some of the things I have said here, in how documents relate to what would come of my standing up today – especially where the prophecies of the Qur’an came in. I will let him think about that, tho’, and only relate that what he said of looking into the eyes of small children and realizing there is a God in heaven is True. Amen, brother. Good luck.
Starting over is something everyone must do from time to time to be Right with God, with self, and with others. Amen, amen.
I will ask of the mujaheedan in Iraq today, then, to look into the eyes of the children who are around them, and so know that their only True hope rests not in civil war but in piety and reconciliation: even as the Surah of Jihad does Reveal. Get it together, people. Amen.
Bring that cease-fire and come to a table prepared not to walk away from it until a good end is found. Amen, amen, amen. It is in your teachings to search for good ends, and so you are not being True Muslims without turning to this in search of peaceful resolution.
If you wish to prove yourselves, do it thru’ that – for no other way will be fit for the needs of you nor your people. Amen, amen.
Before I get too far off the subject of the Masonic lodge I should bring up the fact that Ms. James, whom I mentioned before, has tried to make things work between herself and Mark – but he never fails to screw that up. She came to me nearly in tears one night just after Easter, saying he broke into her house early that morning and started yelling at her because she had told him she didn’t want to see him anymore – and when he knocked her down she got up and ran out of the house and down the street, but went back to grab her purse and keys and jump in her truck. She realized later the only money she had left was the $20 in her pocket, as he stole the $150 she had in her purse after she ran out the door. Now she knows not what to do about her bills; and if I wasn’t in such poor financial shape I could have helped her in that, but I asked her if she wanted me to sit with her for the night in case he came back. She said no, she didn’t want anyone in the middle of it; she says the guy is a psycho, and she doesn’t know what he will do next as he has beat her several times. I’ve not seen that myself but I’ve seen the aftermath and know it to be True; and I’ve got half a mind to stomp his ass myself even tho’ he has been a friend in the past. But Ms. James used to have a pistol someone gave her to protect herself, and he stole it from her and probably carries it with him: yet whether he is fool enough to use it I don’t know. So I guess I should say that he cannot remain as a friend of mine if he does continue to treat her that way, and if I must Straighten him further I will, however I must.
What I would have others see, tho’, is that this man’s treatment of Ms. James is not so different from what the Fasiqun are doing in Iraq, in that he is unthinking of her but only of himself. I just hope he mends his way, or the police do it for him (and they know who I’m talkin’ ‘bout), so that I won’t need to – but I will if it comes to that, and if he wishes to play with guns I will shoot him myself.
That’s not a threat but a warning. Really it is that I consider him only as a friend in need of reform.
But as I sat back to crack open a pecan I remembered what I once said of Henry Fonda’s role alongside Jimmy Stewart and thought it only shows that because of the ignorance of some people, others do need to turn to violence at times in order that Right things prevail.
And of course extremists might only try to twist that which I just said to say they are right to be rebellious; but that is not the point, nor the Truth. In the Oneness you would see that it merely reflects my position in that even as I stood hoping some would back me I have been the one up on the water tower backing Right beliefs in God, Jesus, and Muhammad – both from disbelief and perversion of belief.
That even applies further to women, and Woman – and Heaven has backed me in that. But of course many do not want to believe it tho’ it is their need to. Wants and needs; it is needs, not wants, which I do serve here – whether you want to recognize me in it or not.
That was my Calling, and still is; and tho’ my duty in confirming the Qur’an to the world is done, still I am Obliged to seek reform.
On that note, however: April showers came; spring is in the air; and I had hoped May flowers would have depicted rebirth in revival of faith. Yet as none came to me over the past month in Right ways with offerings of peace and acknowledgement of belief I have to say this is the only bouquet any shall get from me today. Verily, I am scrounging for flowers; because that so many refused to help rebuild the Garden. Will they ever learn ?? Some people still see this as but a game. Get real, and be a better person for it. Amen.
I applied for a number of jobs again over the past few weeks but never heard back from any of them. Either they know who I am and are turning me down in denial of my beliefs or they are seeing that I have not had a job for over 2 years now and think I am not worth the trouble – in which case I blame the government, because that they kept me from jobs before. And I pondered where I should go with this now; and mine answer was to lead in rebellion of their arrogance. Not that it should be a civil war, mind ye, but heavy protest.
I cannot let that interfere with what I see being done on the international level, tho’, as this is not the worst of nations by far.
So to go on…
One
God bless you, then, Sir. Amen, amen.
Since I have spoken so much of Remembrance today, sit back and remember your plots which have been against the things I said. Such plots are worthless, people. The Lord thy God hath plotted against you Himself. I shouldn’t have to aim this at any of those I know it does apply to; they should know it themselves. What are you doing that is in total disregard of the principles I did note today ??
Think about that and seek good ends in reform, thru’ good change in light of good and believing ways. Amen, amen.
My aim is for reform in thought, word, and deed, all ‘round the world. It is different in any nation or land even tho’ the cultures share similar things which need be worked on. It is my Calling to steer you to His Cause, which is reform in the goodness of hearts – and if your heart is good you will follow me in that and so prove yourselves as that righteous generation He Seeks throughout all time. If you don’t understand that, think back on what I said of His Path being of Courses and Recourses: some people like to think there is no such thing as fate, that there is only destiny and whatever happens it was what He wanted to happen; but how can that be if in that end of doom He Comes in His Anger ?? Really it is that in our free will we do have choices, and chances, and in those we either make or break ourselves – but what a man sees in one’s life is not always what it is in His Eyes, and to think you have no choices in life is to deny that you have free will. I chose to stand when I heard Him Call: were you one who chose to listen and follow, or one who chose to argue or even just ignore me ?? I look back upon the copy of my book I gave to a U.S. Senator some time ago and remembered a day months afterward when someone from the Secret Service told me they had shredded the book and if they ever heard from me again they would be all over me. At that point I said, screw that – and I started up my website. Do you see, then, it is their own ignorance that caused them to set their stooges upon me ?? In their own understanding they saw nothing good in all that which I sought to bring.
Don’t let your understanding become void in vain but grow in this today. Realize that the body of Job 11 reflects those who cling to Woman in the “skins” and “masks” the Qur’an Spoke of are but being foolish, and stand against me no more but do Right by me today.
I told you earlier here I would get into spiritual teachings of business practices.
“
Amen, amen.
Dirty secrets, and dark circles of men: verily, that guy was one of them; and for that very reason I was turned to spiritual aspects of business. But for any of such nature, if I expose them not they think I know not of their plots. Yet they can hide nothing from God, and what He Shares with me of such they know not unless they see it here. There are things I am not to give here as it makes it harder to find good ends; but don’t think you can carry out those plots and get away with it. If you but plot against me, He shall Plot against you.
That is one of His Truths, courtesy of the Qur’an. Amen, amen.
I was turned today to an old book on business practices, written in 1892 (the year of my grandfather’s birth) by J. L. Nichols.
Right off the bat I saw a picture of Benjamin Franklin, beneath which was set Proverbs 22:27… “Seest thou a man diligent in his business ?? He shall stand before kings.” Well, seest thou that in my work I have stood here before kings, because that I am diligent ??
Regardless, a number of quotations came out in that book; and I will give a few of them here.
“Our greatest glory is not in never falling; but in rising every time we fall.” – Confucious
Indeed, if Truly you learn from your mistakes there is blessing in it.
“Be not simply good, be good for something.” – Thoreau
Make a stand in goodness today for the Lord; that surely goodness will prevail.
“No legacy is so rich as honesty.” – Shakespeare
Be honest, and humble, that thy legacy, no matter how any other sees it, is then rich.
“Talk little, hear much, reflect alone what has passed in company, distrust one’s own opinions, and value others that deserve it.” – Sir William Temple
Indeed I hear much, much more than I speak of, and I reflect upon it all where it applies to mine own opinions to be sure I believe them, valuing what I hear from others where it is clearly deserving. But all of that should be a part of anyone’s growth in understanding.
“Nothing more completely baffles one who is full of trick
and duplicity himself, than straight-forward and simple integrity in another.” –
Indeed, total disbelievers in God and even believers who are treacherous and deceitful could be know if only because they would have the hardest time understanding all this, for its simplicity would seem to be so complex it would baffle them. Yet to go on…
“One today is worth two tomorrows.” – Ben Franklin
The point is, make your day count in good, pious, and believing ways – for in that is built hope, for tomorrow.
“There is no boy in America, however humble his birth, who,
in whatever capacity his lot may be cast, if he have a strong arm, a clear
head, brave heart, and honest purpose, may not, by the light of our public
schools and the freedom of our laws, rise until he stands foremost in the honor
and confidence of the country.” – Congressman Payson (
Well, without real Faith all of that only tends to fall into remiss; but amen, brother. May ye rest in peace. Heart, purpose, reason, strength, freedom, and faith, are key. I but hope to lend chance that the same is able to be said of anyone, in any country. Amen, amen.
“This above all – to thine ownself be true. And it must follow, as the day, the night, thou canst not then be false to any man.” – Shakespeare
If you are untrue to others you are untrue to yourself. Everyone needs work on that, but it is human nature to make such a mistake – for we are all sinners. Thus have faith, that you may bring yourself to accept Truth when it is clear. Only in that, might any be Delivered.
“Deliberate with caution, but act with decision, and yield
with graciousness, or oppose with firmness.” –
You cannot oppose everything; you must be mindful, and humble, acting with grace even when you must be firm – even as have I.
And verily, God does the same.
“Blest work, if ever thou wert a curse of God, what must His blessings be!” – J. B. Selkirk
If thou seest not my work as a blessing and curse me for it you will only curse thine ownself in the end. Work builds character – but many put their nose to the grindstone every day, whether believers or not, and have not the Lord in their heart as they work.
“Do you what you undertake thoroughly. Be faithful to all
accepted trusts.” – an anonymous
I should say that for you to be True in that last one, you need to rethink today the trusts you have held with others in the past and be sure they are acceptable, as well as your undertakings, in light of these teachings – and I would point out that in Nichols’ works he did steer heavily to faith in the Lord, altho’ he did not seem to press much for protest. Yet here are a few other things he left there.
“Every successful man must have the backbone to assert his rights.”
“Be not ashamed to work, for it is one of the conditions of our existence.”
“Selfishness is the meanest of vices, and the parent of a dozen more.”
“Never forget a favor, for ingratitude is the basest trait of a mean man’s character.”
“Remember that an honest man is the noblest work of God.”
In speaking of True businessmen, he said they do not walk “about the world as if they had come into it with only half their soul”; in other words, a man of True character puts his heart and soul into his work and is mindful of those he serves not just as customers but as people and children of God. How many businessmen do you know who will cut their own profits to help needy others ??
True, I could find things in that book as well to speak against; but on the whole the man proves himself. This I loved…
“Truth and honesty show themselves in various ways. They characterize the men of just dealing, the faithful men of business, the men who will not deceive you to their own advantage. Honesty gives full measure, just weights, true samples, full service, and a strict fulfillment of every engagement. The truth of the good old maxim, ‘honesty is the best policy’, is fully demonstrated every day of our life; and uprightness and integrity are found as successful in business as in everything else. As Hugh Miller’s worthy uncle used to advise him, ‘in all your dealings give your neighbor the cast of the bank – good measure, heaped up, and running over – and you will not lose by it in the end.’ Truth is the essence of principle, integrity, and independence, and every man needs it. Absolute veracity is more needed today than at any former period of our history. Remember that honesty rises above fortune and above kings; by that alone, and not by the splendor of riches or of titles in glory acquired, that glory which it will be your happiness and pride to transmit unspotted to your posterity. Honesty is greatness itself; dishonesty never made a man great, and never will. Rather be and continue poor, while others around grow rich by fraud and disloyalty; rather be without place or power, while others beg their way upward; rather bear the pain of disappointed hopes while others win their way by flattery, and forego the gracious pressure of the hand for which others cringe and crawl. Wrap yourself in the cloak of virtue, and seek your bread with an honest hand, and if you grow gray in this cause, with unsoiled honor bless God, and rejoice: the honest man, though e’er so poor, is king of men for all that.”
Any who are True at heart would feel those thoughts a great part of themselves. This was a giving, believing mover of men – a low-key reformist who did tote purity in business practices, at least at that point in his life. It doesn’t matter if a man ends up rich or poor, but that his aim is honest and so his honor unsoiled in the Eyes of God. Thus faithful men – no matter how they fare – are the foundation of business; while unfaithful men tear at True growth, spawning corruption and looking for an advantage when their real purpose in life is to be giving and caring, so that they take not advantage of others. It is not Right, then, that every man should be free and independent unless he carries in his manner good, honest, and faithful principles of True integrity. Be giving unto neighbors; exactly what I have carried here even as do many others in their own beliefs. And whether any who hold power or wealth today want to recognize it or not, if they are not sharing their wealth in goodly proportion with those who have True needs rather than just those who have wants, they are not Truly giving nor caring. And the same goes for kings, or leaders, that if they but lead or rule in a manner which is not of honest principle or integrity they are not only being disrespectful unto their people but unto God. But as an honest man, when faced with corruption, many times ends up only disappointed, then indeed, one who wins his way by mere flattery gains much less than one who wins his way by bearing the pain of disappointment – because that in honest he makes himself righteous. So tho’ one might become rich thru’ fraud and disloyalty, he is much worse than the honest man who either ends up poor or rich. Be honest, then.
Be honest, no matter where it leads you in life; but leave not love for the Lord thy God from your thoughts. Amen, amen.
Here’s one of Nichols’ notes concerning business…
“Business, in every age of the world, has been the chief pioneer in the march of man’s civilization. Blessings everywhere follow its advancing footsteps. It travels over no blood-stained fields to secure its noble ends, but everywhere brings man into friendly and harmonious intercourse (well, I don’t know if I would have used that word). It removes local prejudices, breaks down personal antipathies, and binds the whole family of man together by strong ties of association and of mutual and independent interests. It brings man together, and towns and cities are built; it makes men venture upon the seas in ships, and traverse continents on iron pathways (in 1892 railroads were prominent in America), and wherever we go, whether abroad or at home, it is business that controls the great interests of the world, and makes the affairs of men mighty.” Well, you have to figure that as he did not approve of shady business practices he did also realize that tho’ these are lofty ideals they are never fully attained because of corruption – but tho’ some might say “that’s progress” and think it doesn’t really matter, it really goes back to honesty and truth. Tho’ it is True business is a necessary part of worldly life the greedy only make it worse on others, and so while there are blessings there are still things to set Right. This does also tie to the “mutual losses and gains” of the Qur’an; but reform must go hand-in-hand with pioneering, as many times not-so-noble ends start the flow of blood upon those fields. So it IS the course of man to find harmony in business practices, even as it is his course to carry forth peaceful efforts in diplomacy; but none of that will be Right if men make themselves not to be of humble and Right nature. Morals are the center of almost all religious teachings; but the core differences of beliefs are what misconstrue harmony. Yet you cannot compromise Faith for worldly gain. Catch 22 ?? Nay; you just have to catch the con artists and the swindlers and, well, I could go on and on here – but the point is, keep the faith, be a better person for it, and practice good etiquette in your manner.
Amen, amen.
Nichols also noted on an old saying relating that God made two kinds of holes for us to settle in, round ones and 3-cornered ones, and two kinds of people, round and 3-cornered – the problem being that most of the round people are in the 3-cornered holes while most 3-cornered people are in the round holes. Truth Is, this is in large part why things seem so disturbing in our lives and is a source of great strife; but verily, each one of us is unique. Yet as he says, “when home and lands are gone and spent then learning is most excellent” – always is there more to learn (especially in Faith). “The great art of commanding is to take a fair share of the work.” “Make money, and do good with it. Love your God and fellowmen. Love truth and virtue. Love your country and obey its laws.” Well, don’t forget the Laws of God come first. “Endeavor to be perfect in the calling in which you are engaged.” Indeed, “endeavor to be perfect”; strive for perfection, even tho’ you know you can never reach it, thru’ good and believing ways. I don’t know how Nichols’ end came; and most of the book covered different types of businesses and skills; but he later noted “honesty is the best policy” again, to add to it that “he who weds himself to that principle, though poor, makes life a success.” Thus be honest, in thy faith and practices.
Amen, amen. A good, honest, humble, pious, and faithful man will find happiness after this life regardless of his material gains – for it is spiritual gains which lend the promise of Redemption. Material things, tho’ they help lift attitudes, do not bring True happiness.
I am a good, honest, humble, pious, and faithful man, struggling to make my way in life against all odds, and I refrain from anger whenever possible. You would not believe how many times I have turned the other cheek to insults from others, as it helps you to great extent for me to keep such frivolous arguments from these works. If I had reached out to slap every face that condemned me today my hand would be hurting; and I owe my joy in having restrained myself in such great part while others did not to the teachings of Christ.
Amen, amen.
I would share with you a bit of a sit-com here. It was not a true event, but let me make my point: a man was frustrated by the deceitful practices of a businesswoman and was ranting against her when his associate said at least she didn’t worship the devil. His reply was “She doesn’t have to !! He worships her !!” It was funny when I heard it, but then it sank in: there really are people like that.
And it was funny that I only saw this because that I stopped here for a short break. I see it that God Causes me to notice such things.
It struck me funny, however, that in giving all his advice Nichols also ended up saying not to take advice from anyone nor even to listen to the opinions of others, as it refutes the idea of listening to him; and he is not the first person to give advice and say the same.
But if I followed that kind of advice I would not have listened to anyone nor would I have listened to any teachings you hold, nor his. Really it is that while you learn from and listen to others, the things you take from them need be sorted thru’ to find good sense.
You have to separate material values from spiritual values in reviewing teachings, then, and see if and how they Truly fit. You can’t just run around killing people, especially in the name of God, when you are unwilling to try to understand exactly what they believe.
And you have to listen to other opinions in order to better shape your own. I did exactly that just in reading thru’ the Qur’an and taking it into my heart even tho’ I had always been steered from it before. It is a point about facing other Truths you know nothing of.
Life is always a thing of learning, then. We are Meant to grow in our understandings and reform ourselves in them.
And I became a Muslim without losing my Christian values. I walk in the path that few ever walk in life, and few ever understand – a path simple to those who realize it, but confusing to those who do not. Truly, God Chooses those He Knows can find that path.
And it is only they who can Truly lead you in times like these, and only those who believe in them may add to that in Right way.
That says something about early Catholic dogma, then – because in actuality the Romans, in those days, did not believe in Christ.
Rather they stole His teachings; but those did stand even after the fall of their empire, tho’ not without some damage.
And that may still happen to mine if I fall.
But Noah had his day; Moses, Daniel, Abraham, Joseph, Muhammad, and Siddartha had theirs; the list goes on, yet this is mine.
Yet some are trying to take it from me, wrongly trying to
prove me wrong. If all they can do is argue they are not seeking reform at all
– but God bless, that you may reform thine ownselves thru’ this without arguing
with me or thinkin’ I know not what I speak of here.
To make my point: some scientists say they found a 4.2 million-year-old skeleton which “solves the mystery of human evolution”… but it says little of the missing link between primitive and modern man. Do ya figger they’re just refuting what I said of Genesis 6 ??
Exactly; and the devil leads them against me in that. It is the argument between Michael and Lucifer concerning Moses’ writings: Lucifer would rather keep it secret, that we remain locked in argument – yet many see that not but think what they have is enough.
And again, it goes against our clear need to grow in understandings; and that has to do with seeking harmony in science and religion.
And I note again that it hinges upon realizing Genesis is but a short form of God’s Truths of Creation intended for simple people – for in Moses’ day, that is all they needed. Their sciences were not evolved and so his need was not to marry the two but to found beliefs.
I just don’t see how so many cannot realize that in the modern world the evolution of science has surpassed the evolution of beliefs. Beliefs must evolve; it is crucial to growth in understandings, and to spiritual progression – and the point of Siddartha’s last words.
And only His Chosen, Anointed and Appointed not by man but by His Own Hand, are able to Truly advance that knowledge – but if you turn away from them in seeking something more pleasurable to your own designs, you are but simply turning to Satan.
How did Lucifer and his loose band of angels, who have become as devils and demons, fall ?? According to Catholics they refused to acknowledge and adore the god-head of man; so do you not see denial of me is exactly what they push you to ?? The covenant I am Lent is a mountain in itself, and Lucifer has sat upon it to keep me from my Right, to have it for his own and keep you in darkness thru’ the clouds of fear and doubt. He thinks he can reach to the heavens even while bringing you to suffer, and he works thru’ many. Indeed, he and I are Sworn enemies for all time; but if I fall today because of thy denial he will be one step closer to his goal. It should be evident, then, that always does a battle of the heavens present itself, and that the prominence of strife and great duress on earth reflect the rise of the same within the heavens, for always do the dark ones seek to rise – and it is their quest which presents doom for us, as they can only succeed in that thru’ us.
Thus goodness must prevail – on earth, as it is in heaven. Amen, amen, amen.
A woman recognized today that many are leading to that very doom, and suggested those who but deny me are not worthy of my prayers. Well, that may be; but it is my duty to be humble enough to pray for them anyway. But in like manner one man did see it the same, suggesting I hire a babysitter. Well, Sir, that’s kind of the concept of disciples, wouldn’t you think ?? But tho’ adults are certainly not babies, being as babes is a different thing indeed – in that as such you learn to listen and so learn again, and thus are reborn in faith.
But because that most are so set in their own understandings they are unwilling to do so even when they see it is clearly Right.
And that goes back to people being complacent in material things: instead of seeing to spiritual growth they conform to the world in its ever-increasing lust for material gains. There is no progression of the spirit in that, tho’: Satan uses it to keep you for himself.
So would someone please do something about the friggin’ oil tycoon vampire pukes and the way in which they
are sucking us dry ?? Every time I turn around they
create some lie of an excuse to hike prices and so increase their profits.
Today I heard them say most of their profits go to the shareholders – but that
is not what was said a year ago, when it was pointed out that those profits
were withheld from shareholders. They are merely looking for reasons to hike
prices and hoping the public will be complacent. I even heard them blaming the
prices on oil-producing countries; but those are in large part developing
nations trying to establish themselves in the modern world. I have my qualms,
tho’, with Chavez – as he is not using his profits simply to develop his
country’s resources but to further propagate political
dissent within the
One oil company reported a 4-billion-dollar profit in the first quarter of this year, said to have been a 49% increase from profits of the same quarter last year – and that was not nearly the largest profits made by these companies. I am sick and tired of seeing people give up their hard-earned money to such greed, and there is no excuse for it – but one said they are “looking out for stockholders” – get real !! That wasn’t the tune you carried last year at all, and you are merely hiding in power and wealth, and so refusing reform.
Anyone should realize, the biggest problem is they hide behind the influential people in their pockets. But just because they are “in it for the money” does not mean their greedy practices are Right. One’s business should not be about money but about serving others.
It is True, then, that there is a point where “boldness becomes stupidity”; but one should see the boldness of these who outright deny me is stupidity indeed. A recent poll did suggest that some 70-80% of the American public is behind me in this at least, brothers.
I am not too happy to see oil jumped from $66 to $75 a barrel, either, especially as I did ask that prices be brought down – but that does not make it Right for oil companies to be raking in record profits at the expense of the public’s livelihood. Get Right. I heard the price of oil just dropped down to a bit under $70 a barrel and I do hope it will go down further; but I am agreed with Mr. Engel in that President Bush needs to haul all the heads of these oil companies into the Oval Office and get some cooperation. Personally I might like to get them all in one room together and whup all their asses; but it will be better if the matter is handled in a different way.
And maybe some didn’t like that last statement, but I thought it to be a bit of lawful enjoyment. I am more caring than that, tho’.
But if that’s what I have to do to ensure their generosity, I will. The thing is, I pointed out a year ago that if they took all their ill-gotten profits and used them in Right manner they would subsidize Americans and we would be seeing record lows at the pumps, not highs.
1 Corinthians 14:1… “follow after charity, and desire spiritual gifts…”…
Yes, there are other things people think they can rule against me in, but it is their material gifts they are desirous of in that.
1 Corinthians 14:30… “if any thing be revealed to another that sitteth by, let the first hold his peace…”…
I sat by long in life, and if any thinks he comes before me let him hold his peace. It is time to find your place as a joint in the body; and as Dr. E. Bernard Jordan put it, “the rooting out, the pulling down, the destroying, the throwing down, the building and the planting… must take place for the entire body of Christ to be perfected…”; I expect you to rebuild yourselves, to uproot and replant yourselves in faith of these things; but if you do it not you are throwing away not only the greatest opportunity ye shall ever have but the greatest treasure ye shall ever find.
But the thing is, you cannot keep church and state separate without corruption settling not only into government but industry.
And that is a great part of my fight in many nations, to embattle their corruption. But the corrupt do not like being threatened.
Yet what motivates me is the Holy Spirit, and what I do, I do for His Glory and Honor. It is not that I so much foretell but that I communicate His Purpose and Design. What does that make me, then, but a Watchman as Ezekiel; a seer, to be understood and followed ??
If you blow me off as a soothsayer, tho’, believe me, it will come back to haunt you. That may be your want but it is not your need.
Really some are still sitting there judging me, and they hear me say one thing they don’t like and think, well, screw him.
But another thing Dr.
You will prove not your righteousness by setting yourselves against me.
I was glad at least to see a small firm making ethanol in
But speaking of corn: Monsanto came out on TV just after my last posting to brag of the millions of acres they seed each year and spoke of looking to expand. Screw you and the horse you rode in on: that being those you paid off to keep quiet as you plundered the resources of this great nation’s farming communities. I am not going to look at you as enemies today but as brothers in great need of reform and a debt to repay society – yet if your want is to see me as an enemy, well, your need is to kiss my ever-lovin’… cheek…
And don’t get any bright ideas about givin’ me the kiss of death, either, for you will pay for that act with your very soul. All this goes back to the things I pointed out in Nichols’ teachings; and you might see there, he noted the time even in his day was nearing great trouble – not long before World War I. You should recall that war had nothing to do with religion but was merely a matter of greed; but get it Straight: I studied economics as well, and the equations of business – even as the equations of science – have long left God out of the picture. So here’s your friggin’ picture: if all you can say is “supply and demand” in support of your outrageous acts you will be damned. Who wants to go to hell today ?? Do not pass Go, do not collect thy salvation ?? Be!; the Wise. Know I am of His Sonship.
Daniel 12, people.
I am Michael; but while I could just go around flippin’ over tax tables today, what good would that do ?? They’d only jail me. One old man said in church that if anyone were to stand as did Christ today people would look to kill him, and that did prove True with me.
But I take heart in the “(probably)” Enoch left in his notes, knowing I have a chance yet to go on and so fulfill the blessing.
Business itself is a science, tho’, and must be mindful of God. Thus any businessman must realize his obligation to be generous.
I have His Guidance. Attack me not nor turn from me, that I may set you aright and guide you to new frontiers as have some in the past – for it is not that I seek to extinguish your pleasure but that I seek to reform you in the manners in which you obtain it. Amen, amen.
Religious understandings must catch up with scientific findings, as they have gotten so far ahead they drag people away from God – and if you refuse to confront that need you are only feeding Satan. So let me show again how simple, and complex, the task really is.
According to one old Catholic note God Created Light around 4004 B.C. …
But scientific findings prove the world dates back much further than that. Fossil records found by archaeologists date back millions of years. Thus such an assumption is quite obviously wrong, and contrary to Catholic belief their own assumptions are not infallible.
We are all sinners, and we all make mistakes no matter how in tune we think we are with God’s Truths. Realize that and deny me not. I have made mistakes in my life as any other – but it is not for you to judge me, as you know not my relation to the Lord. Amen, amen.
More recent Catholic opinions date back a few thousand years more but that too is wrong. Religion and science are married, and the civilized world is strong enough to accept that – but we have our faults. Not one of us is perfect, but we are to strive for perfection; and in that there is always room to grow as a people. Yet you cannot just up and throw God out of the equation of life. Amen, amen.
I heard today that
Yet verily, some are so wrapped up in fantasy they refuse to see reality. One female dog could think of nothing better to say today than “Dorothy is gone”… yeah ?? Well, I guess that makes you the wicked witch, then, huh ?? Or should I be spelling that with a “b” ??
Get real, and get Right. He Is in Decision, and His Curse still looms. If you are one who in pride stood to speak against me your pride has stained your very soul – for you should have been standing with me and helping to serve the Cause here today. Remember what I said of singing in praise ?? You sing even as you act and talk, and it would be better for you to keep to good thoughts, words, and deeds within your manner, especially with me. This may be admonishment, but there are glad tidings in it for those who take it to heart.
Amen, amen, amen.
This is a tree which would save thee if you but uphold me in it. Yes, it has suffered some “storm damage” from denial but still it stands. I would note of “doctors” that I heard two went back to work after being retired several years; they realized what was their purpose before, to help others – and one of them said something to the effect that it is the best way to occupy yourself in life. I wish that more had as good a chance to do so as do they – but tho’ all are Created equal, we do not end up with the same chances to prove ourselves.
“Keep accurate accounts, and know the condition of your affairs.” Another line by Nichols, it is as True in beliefs as in business.
This one is particularly fitting, tho’: “Be economical; a gain usually requires expense; what is saved is cleared.”
It would save you, to look upon yourself and Right your wrongs.
I stood up with others in church today to sing a few songs of faith; and at that moment it came to me that I needed to show something more of what they represent in my faith, as Truly I feel some people sing the words without searching for deeper meaning in them.
Thus I borrowed a hymnal from a local church and went thru’ it to find what I may show from it that is not in that which one normally considers – for I realized that day that if it yet comes that I must walk away, this must be left for you as an ending to the teachings I have already given. So I only watched the world these past few weeks on occasion while taking a break from this and from mine own songs, and wrote down certain gospel songs to speak of here – to give my thoughts on them, while practicing some of them on guitar.
A good friend, however, posed some questions I considered here, from the book entitled “The Lost Books of the Bible”…
In the “first Gospel of the Infancy of Jesus Christ” – said to be a scroll Muhammad once reviewed himself – it was claimed that Joseph and Mary stopped at a cave as they neared Jerusalem to pay their taxes, and Mary said she could go no further. Joseph left her there and hurried into town to fetch a midwife, and in returning with an old Hebrew woman he found the cave lit up – not with candles or lamps, but with a light “greater than the sun.” Entering the cave they found the baby Jesus was already born, and wrapped, suckling at Mary’s breasts. Well, anyone who believes in the Immaculate Conception should as well realize that if there is Truth to this that light was due to the presence of angels – and as I did note it said in the Qur’an that Mary had conceived on her own away from town with her arms wrapped around a tree, I thought, well, likely there were many trees around the cave and this should uphold that view.
Anyway, according to Nicodemus’ writings Joseph and Mary
stayed in the cave for ten days, in which time shepherds saw the cave lit and
stopped in awe to visit. Afterwards they traveled to
And that is just the kind of thing I would expect from
Satan. If he couldn’t get people to attack Jesus he would try to get them to
worship Him as if He were God, and Jesus was not one to worship (and would have
told you that Himself). He is worthy of honor and respect and even praise; but
all that you see in Jesus is but an extension of God, and Jesus was not God nor
can He be seen a Son of God without seeing such thru’ that “Sonship”
Islam professes of God’s Chosen. One thing you should note, tho’, is that Jesus
was a material body of existence having a soul as any other tho’ that soul, or
spirit, was one like no other – and so tho’ He was human He was the most Divine
of His Servants because that He was Immaculately Conceived. The document also notes
Jesus spoke as a babe, and that the idol fell over broken within days of their
arrival in
But it was also noted that throughout Jesus’ childhood He studied many things, not just religious teachings but things like physics, metaphysics, anatomy, astrology, philosophy, even the ancient art of psychic healing – and that doctors, elders, and learned others marveled at the understandings He found in them, and that even at the age of 12 Jesus was becoming the teacher and they the students. From this you should see there is always growth in understanding to find, then; and numerous miracles were told of from His youth, which for a people who believe make it quite clear: God Gave unto Jesus greater Gifts than any of His Servants ever.
I feel Muhammad recognized and respected that and thus claimed Him to be that “special spirit” as in his eyes Jesus was like unto no other – and that is why he could not believe one so great had been crucified. I did shew thee already that God Made him to think that in order to keep Islam separate from Roman Catholic domination, as the seat of power vested in the Emperor – tho’ indirectly it saved the teachings of Christ – only supported Christianity as a tool to effectively influence and rule others in otherwise lofty schemes.
Yet that really has little to do with what the Pope represents today except that old dogma still is present: so I will note some of that today, not to attack the Catholic Church but to prove my point. Yet where Pontius Pilate is concerned, according to Nicodemus he spoke with Jesus and was disgusted with the manner in which the priests treated Him. He knew as did others Jesus had been the very one Herod meant to kill as a babe when he ordered the deaths of all those infants; and he saw that while as a child so many elders and priests looked upon Jesus as the Savior Son of prophecy, when in adulthood He stood to say the same many but turned against Him in denial.
Denial: void in vain, indeed. They watched Jesus grow up, astonished; yet when He became bigger to the people than were they it came down to jealousy, and in that they did but shame themselves – for in their own understandings they refused to grow with Him.
And I shall add, some of you have been no better than they where I am concerned.
Yet Nicodemus did never say Christ asked the Lord to “forgive them, for they know not what they do” but that He did say “Father, into Thy Hands I commend my spirit” as He ”gave up the ghost” – a reference as to spiritual connections to the Creator during life.
We all have that spiritual connection, believe me, if we only live a life which grants it. Amen, amen.
But my view of the Holy Ghost or Holy Spirit is not the same
as what is held in Catholic dogma of a Trinity which claims God a 3-fold entity
and that Christ and God are One and the Same. If you believe that the next
thing you know they will say a man walking this earth is God, possibly a Pope; and
such would be absurd. But I see the “Holy Ghost” or “Spirit” as God working
thru’ us in His
And still, Jesus is not nor was not God. Consider, if you will, the notes made on this in the book “Reasoning from the Scriptures”, beginning at page 212 and extending thru’ page 218 (you should also consider what is said of “Michael” there while you are at it).
Yet if you read that, brothers, and sisters, be sure to note that I am not against any people or any nation except if they are against the reform I have stood up to call for, and if they make themselves to be mine enemies they but make themselves to be His as well. Amen.
But I would add: Nicodemus stood up for Jesus against the Pharisees
when they accused Him, and was the physician who tended to His body after it
was removed from the cross at the bequest of an unknown disciple named Joseph
without the Pharisees having prior knowledge (and they were quite upset over
that). According to Nicodemus he mummified the body prior to placing it in the
tomb, using linen to wrap it and some hundred pounds of assorted medicinal and
aromatic goods. I think there is enough evidence to support what Christians
generally accept of the Resurrection and that as far as Islam is concerned it is
simply part of that Truth God did not Allow Muhammad to find, in order to keep
them apart from the Romans. That would also explain his disbelief in the
Trinity, then, and I should only have to say: Salvation was Lent him merely
thru’ his study, belief, and practice of Jesus’ teachings, especially as he did
set his own life in peril trying to preach the Gospel in the abyss of
One of my problems with Catholic dogma, however, is the fact they consider it heresy for anyone to interpret Scripture other than those they officially appoint – that they consider themselves to be the owners and the last word as to Biblical Truth, and that is false itself.
No-one “owns” God’s Truths; the early Romans established this dogma so that they would have a means to rule thru’ the Church, and if Catholics will only admit to that today it will get us a step down the road – but otherwise it is a step backwards, for in this same manner they have in the past ruled all other faith to be false, including anything that stemmed from the Protestant movement.
In other words, in the eyes of the Vatican it has been said Christians, Baptists, Lutherans, Muslims, Buddhists – any religion which does not stand in the beliefs duly established by the Vatican and its officials and so is other than “Roman Catholic” – is naught but heresy.
Well, they may not say that today but it was said in the year of my birth, at least.
Yet whether they have used that dogma to label me a heretic or not is still in question – and if they have, it is heresy on their own part.
If it had been God’s Will I would have been a Roman Catholic, and as His Messenger stood only for them – and if it had been God’s Will, Muhammad would have accepted their view of the Trinity and of the Crucifixion and subsequent Resurrection. But there are Reasons why those things did come to be against them, to keep them from the seat of power the ancient Romans sought.
I hold nothing against Catholics, then, but none own His Truths; none have the absolute power to reign in His Name except thru’ willing hearts in acceptance of clear Truth as left by His Servants. As far as I’m concerned I seek no throne; I only seek my Rightful gains, that I may use them in mine own way and set an example for those who have wealth but do not use it to support others as they should.
So it perturbed me to get a check for $2 today for the sale of a second book – especially as some used my work for their own purposes, and their own gains. Funny, tho’; it was bought in a bookstore, and as it is not carried on the shelves it was not just mere passing chance that the book was bought. Also it is not just passing chance I was paid for it; for I know others have held copies, and my gains have been withheld. But no, those who did that to me do not wish to admit their failures but would rather have you think me a liar.
And they can kiss my everlovin’… but to go on…
Here’s one thing Roman Catholics deemed as heresy years ago… “Unitarianism denies the Trinity and stresses the unity of God; hence the name. Many pass for Protestants or Christians. They are not Christians, however, for by rejecting the Trinity they deny the divinity of Jesus Christ and the truths He revealed, especially the fall of man and the consequent need of Redemption and the sacraments. The basis of their religion is purely rational, that is, it rests on reason alone.” Well, the guy who wrote that was reasoning himself; yet there is always a constant need to seek Redemption thru’ repentance and reform, and one must reason in manner of faith to do so. But why do any say they need no reform ?? It is Commanded of you; you are Commanded to grow in spirit and in light of clear Truth – for refusal to do so is exactly what will lead to the fall of man. Unity of Faith is professed to be the aim of a number of religions; but in life I have seen them fight over it rather than work towards it. The fact is, reason without Faith is what you should be against, and that does not include reasoning in which the faith of the speaker is simply not quite in tune with yours. Believers in God, no matter what their differences, should band together in Unity against atheists, and demon-worshippers, and other such scurges.
So get it Straight. Seeking Unity of Faith is not heresy, and I am no heretic. Yet all those who yet seek to discredit me are heretics – even as were the priests who could do nothing more than discredit Jesus. Keep it up if you want; but you’ll be Proven wrong in the end.
My contribution was Meant to be more than mere knowledge, people. It was Meant to become an example unto you, that I might steer you from a great part of the materialism so many keep themselves in. Yet it is materialism itself which keeps me from it thus far, as in free will of deceitful others I have been kept from my gains in this. So I would add, that you consider it of those who plotted against me: when Pilate washed his hands of the matter and gave it to the Jewish elders to decide Jesus’ fate, they said His blood would be upon them and their children. In that they cursed themselves; do not take it lightly today. The debt they placed upon themselves and their children is paid in full by the persecution which they went thru’ at the hands of the Romans; but bring it not upon yourselves in me.
Mine was to live, teach, and be fortunate enough to tend to the material needs of the poor as well as to the spiritual needs of anyone – but if I took 5 loaves of bread, feed 5,000 people with it, and still had some left over, most would only think me to be some wizard.
Thus it is that I am left to do things as do others, that I am not so easily labelled a freak to ignore – even tho’ some already have labeled me as just that. They will be of those whose eyes are sunken on that Day if they do not wake up from the ignorance they take pride in.
“There’s no judgment” ?? I know some have started over, and their attitudes toward me are part of that. But others are gambling on getting a conviction against me, thinking that with me out of the way they can have their own way. They are fools whose actions will be a burden to them and their children as was with those who convicted Jesus, for rather than find conviction in their hearts and Right themselves they would hang me. Yet if you see not by now that my very being proves the existence of that Sonship in which Servants Serve, as was with Jesus, you are unthinking. There is Truth to that Trinity, but not in the way in which it was presented to Muhammad – which is why he did not accept it. Verily, as Muhammad was Kept from the Truth of Christ he, too, was unable to see the reality of that which none have ever realized – and I will give you something of that here, but you will not find the Truth of it if you deny me.
Yet first, in light of the double answer I gave to the question of Christ in my last memoir, I will say: it was noted that Pontius Pilate was killed by the Emperor of Rome for having allowed the crucifixion to occur, as the Emperor had hoped to see if Jesus could heal him.
Do you not think, then, that if Pilate had indeed plotted to help Jesus escape death he would have told the Emperor and asked Jesus to help him ?? It would be ridiculous to base your assumptions on a single document whose author and date and even the content thereof are not even available to be examined, so as far as Michael Baigent is concerned you can think what you will. I believe in the power of Resurrection, regardless, and there is more evidence to support that than anything else – especially as I feel it is what the Lord hath Set in my heart to believe, and I am not going to question the Lord about it. You can if you want, but it is not your need.
Accept what I have given you; it is enough to find growth in understandings between you without arguing if you take it to heart.
I know my place in His Plan, and many sought to take me from it. Mine is to Straighten your differences.
Not to resolve them, mind ye, but to Straighten them. It is up to you to resolve them in light of what I gave. Amen, amen.
But no, I do not take each and every word Nicodemus wrote as Truth, nor of any other who wrote – not even mine own, as I know I have had some confusion in matters. Yet overall I know it to be True on the whole, and you should be looking at it in like manner.
47: a great daughter of music I have hoped to see grow in faith turned that age herself today. Keep the faith, dear. Amen, amen.
Getting back to the ascension of Christ, tho’, it is Written that His last words sent the disciples into the world to preach the Gospel to all nations and baptize them in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost – that in such a manner they may be saved.
Take a look at triangles and pyramids. Where life and visible things are concerned man is Given dominion over all the earth and thus is at the top of those things. Yet he has further to go in progression of the spirit, beyond all things of material nature; and the ascent unto Heaven is not on that scale at all, as the soul, as is an angel, is not a visible thing (at least not to most). Yea, that is why we have the gift of reason: that we may envision the things which are of the Unseen, and the Unknown. And always the angels do strive to help us.
“Hail Mary, full of grace. The Lord is with thee.”
The words of Gabriel, in bringing to Mary the Word of God in the Truth that she had been Chosen for the Immaculate Conception.
Maybe you will see it as do I, then, that if you turn the pyramid, or triangle, upside down you might realize that man is then at the bottom, and so it then represents his soul in the spiritual realm of Creation: with God encompassing all (thus the “interwoven” triangles).
Like I said, I went thru’ some gospel songs to see what may be shown of my innermost thoughts on them, as some seem to sing them out in church without ever coming to take their deeper meanings to heart or mind. This will be a lessoned Remembrance, tho’, as not all will accept it – especially those who sought to turn to songs of faith today even after all I gave of that need as clearly shown from within both Scripture and the Qur’an, along with some other sources. But you will find that tho’ I love these songs, I see some discrepancies in them as their authors did not always have a firm grasp on the reality of what certain things of Faith are – especially in that most Christians tend to attribute so much to Jesus when in Truth God Is the Creator and the King over all the heavens. Thy Kingdom come; remember ?? For Thine Is the Kingdom, and the Power, and the Glory, forever ?? Those things are of God; so you need realize that God Is King in Heaven, and that Christ, while He may be King and Lord of our hearts, is but a Prince in the heavens.
That in itself is a sense of spiritual royalty, and so is indeed worthy of note, and honor, and respect, and even praise: but Christ and God are not one, and Jesus would be the first to admit Himself unworthy of worship. But again I heard a preacher try to say Jesus was God; that tho’ He never said it Himself and prayed to the Lord God time and time again, in this preacher’s mind the words of “Doubting Thomas” was the only proof they needed. Thomas, a disciple little was ever told of except for his doubt, exclaimed “my Lord and my God” when he stuck his fingers in the wound of the spear – and tho’ no other disciple ever once said anything that does honestly make any such connection, some do make this seemingly-fair to say that Jesus was God. Gimme a friggin’ break. What was Jesus saying even then but that He would ask the Lord God to do certain things ?? If He were God He would not have had to ask !! How can anyone be so foolish as to think Thomas had any greater knowledge of his own ?? There is even a Thomas doubting today, concerning me – yea, many of them. But these are the things that will cause mankind’s fall: first, pride in abandonment of faith, the fountainhead of sin which leads to greed and lust; second, the wanton pleasure which is spawned by giving in to temptation in disrespect unto the Lord.
Get this Straight today, then, that it unites you in Faith: Jesus’ spirit was not God but an extension of God, a Created soul or spirit like any other but unlike any other, in that His was Given special Gifts and has existed since God first Created souls. If all you say in hearing this is that I have abandoned Faith or disrespected the Lord you are disrespecting me because of thine ignorance. Do ye not see that many of you are in rebellion against the Will and loving designs of God, even as was Satan ?? Keep it up and you will find yourselves in that land of misery and darkness, where the shadow of death, and no order, but everlasting horror dwelleth; and therein as trees in the fall thou wouldst be: fallen and unfruitful, twice dead, and uprooted; for as wild waves of the sea you would indeed be – even as some are being now, foaming up their shame, the wandering stars for whom the storm of darkness was forever Reserved.
Or can you not see that ??
It is Satan who leads them astray; so regardless of their desires I will go on in my duty of finding Unity of Faith here today.
So yes, I still claim Jesus as “His Only Begotten Son” – but I say it in a sense which none did ever seem to realize before.
However, what you must realize is that I myself am that spirit of Michael, the spirit of Truth – the Advocate Jesus did ask to be Sent.
Christ Michael, as noted in the Urantia book. Yea, I have walked thru’ the valley of the shadow of death while none other walked with me, and lived to tell of it. I did wear His Armor, and carry His Shield, among other things, and His Rod and Staff did comfort me.
The Word; it is One and the Same as His Revealed Truths, and tho’ any can carry it the most able in that are those of the Sonship – and always, thru’ the course of time, are those Truths Handed to us to realize. Even in the days of “Atlantis” – in the days of Noah’s people, and before – were those things Handed down; and that which the Mormons claim to have found was something founded by man in those Revealed Truths. But to simply sit and claim it to be heresy is heresy in itself – and it is time that ye come to realize that.
But it is the collection of all those things which will Strengthen us and so renew us in Faith, my friends. Amen, amen.
Before I go on to discuss hymnals, there is a note I would like to add.
Juan Carlos Ruiz was speaking today of integration of the Hispanic population of the United States, and with the problems we still have along the Mexican border I was glad to hear it from him. Some musicians sang my nation’s national anthem in Spanish, and certain people felt it wasn’t right. But tho’ I don’t understand much Spanish I love Tejano music, and I see no problem with them sharing such in their own way. Maybe some feel it sleights them that English was not used, but I see it as a part of national unity in the tradition of music to take that song to heart no matter what language you use – unless you are cursing, of course. It’s kinda like Jimi Hendrix and the Star-Spangled Banner – that was awesome. But even if Chinese-Americans were singing it in Chinese I would find heart in it. Even if Muslims were singing it in Arabic I would find heart in it. Even if my old friend Larry was singing it in his native American Indian tongue I would find heart in it. Yet that being said, as an American one should be able to sing it in English as well.
I would cover the hymnals now. You might note I have set some of them to the chords I use to play them; but the point is, I mean to give the words of the songs and then discuss what I see in each of them. If you have problems, please refrain from anger and read on.
It is something about understanding the things you sing rather than merely singing them. These were inspired writings, but even they hold misconceptions – not that I do not love them for what they are, and not that they cannot inspire you; but try to be understanding.
Remember that greater understandings lead to new beginnings, but understanding without growth becomes void in vain – that you might yet grow today thru’ what I leave you here, knowing full well I have indeed been inspired in this by the Lord thy God. Amen, amen.
It Came Upon the Midnight Clear
=========================
It (E)came up-(B)on the (E)midnight clear, that (A)glorious song of (B)old
From (E)angels (B)bending (E)near the earth to (A)touch their (B)harps of (E)gold
(G#maj)Peace on the earth, good (Bmaj^2)will to men, from (Bmaj)Heaven’s all-(Fmaj)gracious (Bmaj)King(B)
The (E)world in (B)solemn (E)stillness lay, to (A)hear the (B)angels (E)sing
Still thru’ the cloven skies they come, with peaceful wings unfurled
And still their heavenly music floats o’er all the weary world
Above its sad and lowly plains they bend on hovering wing
And ever o’er its
And ye, beneath life’s crushing load, whose forms are bending low
Who toil along the climbing way with painful steps and slow
Look now! For glad and golden hours come swiftly on the wing
O rest beside the weary road, and hear the angels sing
For lo, the days are hastening on, by prophet bards foretold
When with the ever-circling years comes ‘round the age of gold
When peace shall over all the earth its ancient splendors fling
And the whole world give back the song which now the angels sing
(A)A-(E)men
First off, I generally only hear this song sung around Christmas time as a Carol – but it is more than that. “Heaven’s all-gracious King” is God, not Christ, and always He Seeks peace on earth and good will among men. Regardless, tho’, there is always purpose for believers to struggle against disbelief as that is the goal of enjoining Faith – and even in just singing such a song of faith one carries that struggle, as some do not want to hear it. But look at the song: on the wings of angels come many things, but the greatest of those is the search for peace – and really that goes back to the term jihad. Yet to find that peace is a painful and weary road, especially in hard times. Life’s crushing load: there are times when one must stop to rest when walking in faith, that he may hear the things angels sing.
Set your struggles aside for now, then. Take a moment to inspect your beliefs as have I, and so grow in them. It is indeed that days are hastening as has been foretold: but I spoke of the “age of gold” and of history repeating itself, “ever-circling”, in the circle of life.
Few wanted to hear that from me: but you have heard it so long, without understanding. Mine was to bring you that understanding – so understand this. Peace be with thee: the Lord thy God is close and Wrathful, and still His Curse looms. Peace be with thee: the Lord hath worked thru’ me for long to fling your ancient splendors, and splinters, that ye may recognize them. But for long I have been denied by many, and if ye give not back to Him the song the angels sing thru’ good, believing, and peaceful ways it will be your end.
This is the night before the dawn; it is a midnight, and I have made that clear. The harps of gold the angels play are your hearts, but if ye listen not to your hearts you will never come to hear and know their songs. Thus bring yourself to solemn stillness as best ye can.
Amen, amen, amen.
Sad and lowly plains indeed we have made of our lives in a great many ways.
“o’er its Babel sounds”… that goes back to things I said of Babel before, that it is not just a thing of the past but is in our lives constantly, that being the arguments of indifference we but tend to set between us and so miss out on the Best of things which would heal us.
Don’t do that today, then. Hearken unto these things and find their deeper meanings. Show mercy. Lend forgiveness. Use grace.
Amazing Grace
===========
(E)Amazing Grace! How (A)sweet the (E)sound, that (E)saved a wretch like (B)me!
I (E)once was lost, but (A)now am (E)found, was (E)blind, but (B)now I (E)see
‘Twas Grace that taught my heart to fear, and Grace my fears relieved
How precious did that grace appear the hour I first believed
Thru’ many dangers, toils and snares, I have already come
‘Tis Grace has brought me safe thus far, and Grace will lead me home
When we’ve been there ten thousand years, bright shining as the sun
We’ve no less days to sing God’s praise than when we first begun
Amazing Grace! How sweet the sound, that saved a wretch like me!
I once was lost, but now am found, was blind, but now I see
I too was lost in life for long. I was living for material things rather than spiritual ones, and that is no True way to live. All it does is cause you pain in the end, and so one must find his inner being thru’ God. He will Lend you His Grace, if you but show your own.
And I came thru’ many dangers in bringing this to you. I did toil to see that what I gave was Right, and He did carry me in that – even while He Allowed others to set their snares for me, as He Saw their plots and plotted against them as well. It was thru’ His Grace that I have been safe thus far, and already was I Led home: but throughout all this I did stand to push you, and pull you, to sing praise unto the Lord thy God. Who answered to that ?? Did you ?? It is time to do that today, my brothers. Stop your fighting, that instead of being wretches you may sing praise unto Him and so be Saved. Amen, amen. Amazing Grace indeed, is His: that never shall there be a day you should not sing to Him in praise. Let that Be!; what Guides you back to the Straight Path today, my brothers. Amen, amen.
Alone with God
============
When storms of life are round me beating, when rough the path that I have trod
Within my closet door retreating, I love to be alone with God
(CH) Alone with God, the world forbidden, alone with God O blessed retreat
Alone with God, and in Him hidden, to hold with Him communion sweet
What tho’ the clouds have gathered o’er me? What tho’ I’ve passed beneath the rod?
God’s Perfect Will there lies before me, when I am thus alone with God
(CH)
‘Tis there I find new strength for duty as o’er the sands of time I plod
I see the King in all His beauty, while resting there alone with God
(CH)
And when I see the moment nearing when I shall sleep beneath the sod
When time with me is disappearing, I want to be alone with God
(CH)
Rough indeed has been my path as the storms of life beat ‘round me; and within His House, as others took my room, when I was not working on the Roof or sitting in the common room or sweeping and mopping the floors, or washing windows or doing dishes or patching holes in walls, I was resting in the closet, alone with God, worrying not of the clouds some cast over me in their denial but held by Him in Communion. His Rod and Staff have Comforted me while so many sought nothing to add even tho’ it was in their hearts to do so. I saw many reach out today, tho’, in the only way they could as they knew not where to find me. Yet regardless of those who hold me back I know His Perfect Will is still ahead of me on this road, and as long as none smash that hourglass I will find it. I have seen God in His Beauty, and Christ in His beauty, and I keep them in my sights even as They keep me in Theirs – for Christ is a greater part of me than any of you know or are willing to admit. Time will never disappear for me, then – but it will disappear for you, if you are unwilling to accept this of me.
Blest Be the Tie That Binds
====================
Blest be the tie that binds our hearts in Christian love
The fellowship of kindred minds is like to that above
Before our Father’s throne we pour our ardent prayers
Our fears, our hopes, our aims are one, our comforts and our cares
We share our mutual woes, our mutual burdens bear
And often for each other flows the sympathizing tear
When we asunder part it gives us inward pain
But we shall still be joined in heart, and hope to meet again
Are people going to accept today that what they hold to be true is not always True ?? That what they believe to be true can be seen in the beliefs of others ?? That things they consider to be true can be proven false if they are but open to growth in understanding ??
If not your pains will worsen; but if so your hearts will come to be joined. In that there is healing, and enjoinment of spirit – and in reading thru’ the song you should have thought of the teachings I gave from the Qur’an concerning mutual benefits, and/or mutual losses.
The Throne of Heaven belongs to God, and unto Him belong your prayers. Pour them out today search of fellowship, of brotherhood, that kindred minds you might find where you have never realized them before: thru’ Unity in Faith. Get Right with God, and be healed.
Amen, amen, amen.
There Shall Be Showers of Blessings
===========================
There shall be showers of blessing, this is the promise of Love
There shall be seasons refreshing, Sent from the Savior above
(CH) Showers of blessing, showers of blessing we need
Mercy drops round us are falling, but for the showers we plead
There shall be showers of blessing, precious reviving again
Over the hills and the valleys, sound of abundance of rain
(CH)
There shall be showers of blessing, send them upon us, O’ Lord
Grant to us now a refreshing, come, and now honor Thy Word
(CH)
There shall be showers of blessing, oh, that today they might fall
Now as to God we’re confessing, now as on Jesus we call
(CH)
I must say here that Christians tend to attribute more to Jesus than they should, and it is quite obvious to me that if He stood in front of you He would very likely end up not even being recognized but denied once again. Christ is and was but an extension of God, and tho’ as a Prince of Heaven and a Lord of hearts, His power too comes from God. Thus it is God ye need call upon, for ultimately it is He Who refreshes seasons and rains down blessings. Jesus does nothing which is not a part of God’s Will – and this is a day which needs revival. You need see, tho’, that blessings have already been showered upon you, and His Word hath been refreshed even here. It is upon you to confess it, and thru’ that and that alone may you find His Blessings. He hath Lent His Mercy; but many begged for more while not showing their own, while even others stooped to new lows in denying me. Honor your own word, then, and be Righteous in your works. Some might only say I did not honor my word because that I wrote even just this – but my word is to submit to God, and this is what His Guidance did Lead me to do. If you cannot accept that in good faith, tho’, you are just not being faithful at all.
Oh, Come, All Ye Faithful
====================
Oh, come, all ye faithful, joyful and triumphant
Oh, come, ye, oh, come ye, to
Come and behold Him, born the King of angels
(CH) Oh, come, let us adore Him
Oh, come, let us adore Him
Oh, come, let us adore Him, Christ, the Lord
Sing, choirs of angels, sing in exultation
Oh, sing, all ye bright hosts of heaven above
Glory to God, all glory in the highest
(CH)
Yea, Lord, we greet Thee, born this happy morning
Jesus, to Thee be all glory given
Word of the Father, now in flesh appearing
(CH)
Really it is that Jesus is Prince of angels as I have said before – and that should be reflected in the light of that cave Nicodemus noted, because of the reverence the angels paid Him. The body of Jesus, however, was not the same as the spirit of Christ. In the spirit He is Perfect and bound only in whatever limits the Lord God hath for Him, but in life, tho’ His Gifts were great, He was bound to certain material needs which are simply not present in the spiritual realm. But tho’ He is one to adore, all glory be to God. Amen.
As far as the Word of the Father appearing in the flesh, well, that happens thru’ any of His Servants of the Sonship. In a material world it may seem that such men are worthy of praise, then, but any such men will hold the Lord God above their ownselves. I love the song; but face it. Some people seem not to be able to do anything better than kill people for saying such things, instead of reasoning. What matters, then, is that people find better ways between each other of relating their differences in faith. I would sing the song with you, for to me it is inspiring; but if that comes, know that I hold this as a deeper meaning and am not one to sing without meaning.
The First Noel
==========
The (G)first No(D)el, the (C)angel did (G)say
Was to (C)certain poor (D)shepherds in (C)fields where they (G)lay
In (G)fields where (D)they lay (C)keeping their (G)sheep
On a (C)cold winter’s (D)night that (C)was so (G)deep
(CH) No(G)el, No(D)el, No(C)el, No(B)el
(G)Born is the (D)King of (C)Isra(G)el
And by the light of that same Star
Three wise men came from country far
To seek for a King was their intent
And to follow the Star wherever it went
(CH)
This Star drew nigh to the northwest
O’er
And there it did both stop and stay
Right over the place where Jesus lay
(CH)
Then entered in those wise men three
Full reverently upon their knee
And offered there in His presence
Their gold, and myrrh, and frankincense
(CH)
To certain poor shepherds, in fields; not only did He lend faith to the people of the land but to those who followed – and He tried to do the same for the Jewish priests who were lost as shepherds unto the children of God. Yet I have sought to do the same for any, that they know they hold certain Truths regardless of who says otherwise. It has been a cold winter’s night indeed, tho’, as many were cold toward me. The reverence those wise men paid was in recognition of a great one Brought into the world; but as they have always been said to have come from the Orient I thought I should bring this up. Where is the knowledge they took back to the Orient with them ?? Were they only attacked because of it ?? Why are people so damning of others when they know not what Truths they hold ??
Truth Is, the Urantia
book does give that those wise men were from
Time to be reborn in faith, that you end up not just as those who sleep in the dust – those who are dead in spirit.
Revive Us Again
============
We praise Thee, O God! For the Son of Thy Love
For Jesus who died, and is now gone above
(CH) Hallelujah! Thine the Glory, Hallelujah!
Amen; Hallelujah! Thine the Glory, revive us again
We praise Thee, O God! For Thy Spirit of light
Who has shown us our Savior, and scattered our night
(CH)
All glory and praise to the Lamb that was slain
Who has borne all our sins, and has cleansed every stain
(CH)
Revive us again, fill each heart with Thy Love
May each soul be rekindled with fire from above
(CH)
Revival; rebirth in Faith. Greater understanding of the Truths we both share and differ in. Those of the Sonship provide the greatest of opportunities when you need them most, and responding in Right ways to their Service is a part of gaining your salvation. Christ is and was the greatest of them – and tho’ His material body did pass, He is still with us in spirit throughout life. He walks with us at the Right Hand of God and in His Bequest from time to time in life; carrying light, to cast off the darkness in life and so scatter it in the night.
So let me say, all glory and praise you might give to the Lamb does Truly belong to God, but He does share it in and with His Servants.
Yet if you think that the mere death of a Servant in the Sonship takes away your sins and cleanses every stain, you are wrong. It is only thru’ study, belief, acceptance, and practice of their teachings which can do such a thing for you. Revive yourselves, then, in knowing His Love is already in your heart waiting to be found. That has been part of this Message for long, and still many wish not to hear it – but maybe you will see that the admonitions I have had to give are but a part of that “fire from above” noted in the song, and anyone who has ever sung this song in exuberance did ask for it. Yet if you would rather have thy souls rekindled with the hellfire, well, go ahead. Ask Him for it. You will only regret it.
Indeed, I love and sing the song, for it is inspiring. He does use fire when He Sees a need to do so but only when people are unruly and disbelieving – and Truly it is that He even does Allow disbelievers to use fire of their own at times, but He will bury them in that.
Try to see better what your sins are, then. Be prayerful and of good heart, and so cause not meaningless strife. Amen, amen.
Know today you do always have a friend waiting, if you but
turn to Him – and He and I are closer than most want to believe. Actually He
did even walk into the abyss of
What a Friend
==========
(A)What a friend we have in (D)Jesus, (A)all our sins and grieves to (E)bear
(A)What a privilege to (D)carry (A)every(E)thing to God in (A)prayer
(A)O what peace we often (D)forfeit, (A)O what needless pain we (E)bear
(A)All because we do not (D)carry (A)every(E)thing to God in (A)prayer
Have we trials and temptations? Is there trouble anywhere?
We should never be discouraged, take it to the Lord in prayer
Can we find a friend so faithful who will all our sorrows share?
Jesus knows our every weakness, take it to the Lord in prayer
Are we weak and heavy laden, cumbered with a load of care?
Precious Savior, still our refuge, take it to the Lord in prayer
Do thy friends despise, forsake thee? Take it to the Lord in prayer
In His arms He’ll take and shield thee, thou wilt find a solace there
What a friend we have in Jesus, all our sins and grieves to bear
What a privilege to carry everything to God in prayer
Everything to God in prayer
All your prayers must go to God, but a True believer will come to find that Christ does help to carry those prayers. Some would rather say God does not exist; and some would rather say Jesus did not exist, or is not a part of things today. Yet any who believe in His angels need realize Christ is a great Prince of the angels, even as Mary is a Queen unto them; and so He does play a great role in their activities. To trust in Christ, then, or in any of His True Servants, is to realize they have the privilege of carrying your prayers to God.
Let me add, then, that as Muslims have not trusted in Jesus as Savior, the very fact they, as was with Muhammad, were Divinely led to disbelieve in that and see Muhammad as their Savior does lend that in Divine Law, because that Christ was complicit in the Lord’s Purpose He is yet able to carry their prayers – especially for those who find belief in Him. Many angels do nothing but carry prayers to God, and all are able to do that as they are an integral part of His Eyes and Ears even as they are a part of His Hands. Why do you think He hath angels to begin with ?? He Gives them responsibilities even as He Gives us the same, and Expects such to be carried out.
So if you feel weak and heavy laden, know that you are not the only one – but indeed, take it to the Lord thy God in prayer. If people would do that as a greater part of their lives the problems of the world would be lessened. Know today, tho’, Christ as a friend.
Higher Ground
===========
I’m pressing on the upward way, new heights I’m gaining every day
Still praying as I’m onward bound, Lord plant my feet on higher ground
(CH) Lord, lift me up and let me stand
By faith on heaven’s tableland
A higher plane than I have found
Lord, plant my feet on higher ground
My heart has no desire to stay where doubts arise and fears dismay
Tho’ some may dwell where these abound, my prayer, my aim, is higher ground
(CH)
I want to live above the world, tho’ Satan’s darts at me are hurled
For faith has caught the joyful sound, the song of saints on higher ground
(CH)
I want to scale the utmost height, and catch a gleam of Glory bright
But still I’ll pray ‘til Heaven I’ve found, Lord, lead me on to higher ground
(CH)
Higher ground ?? It is that of
greater understanding, and if you will seek that with me with all thy heart you
will find a new beginning thru’ it, one way or another. I long for life in
In the Garden
==========
I (A)come to the (E)Garden a(A)lone, while the (A)dew is (E)still on the (A)roses
And the (D)voice I hear, falling (A)on my (E)ear, the (A)Son of (E)God (A)discloses
(CH) And He (A)walks with me, and He (E)talks with me
And He (Bmaj)tells me I am His (A)own
And the (A)joy we (E)share as we (D)tarry there, no (A)other, shall (E)ever, (A)know
He speaks, and the sound of His voice, is so sweet the birds hush their singing
And the melody, that He gave to me, within my heart is ringing
(CH)
I’d stay in the Garden with Him, tho’ the night, around me be falling
But He bids me go, thru’ the voice of woe, His voice to me is calling
(CH)
Yes, He walks… (CH)
I did speak of roses several times, and of dew, as a form of water. Is it Christ who speaks with me, tho’ ?? I would say not, but rather God, or Gabriel, when I have need. Indeed I walked in the Garden for long as their voices fell upon my ears; and it has been a melody ringing in my heart even amid the many dark things I had to deal with because of others. But that just makes the point more clear, in that His Curse was looming and the night was falling; that He bid me go, in a voice of woe unto you. It was my Calling, and I answered.
Daniel 12; wake up, and Be!; the Wise.
The Awakening
============
The morning breaks, ‘tis bright and clear, the shadows of the night are flying swift away
A stirring cry salutes the ear: Jesus is coming soon
(CH) The song of jubilee, it sweeps o’er land and sea
With thousand voices strong the chorus speeds along
One word of hope and cheer: the Kingdom now is near
Jesus is coming soon, Jesus is coming soon
By form and creed are millions bound, but God hath sent the Word to loose the iron band
Deliverance dawns with this glad sound: Jesus is coming soon
(CH)
Salvation nears, the saints arise, and from the sleep of death the slumb’ring nations wake
We too shall mount the starry skies, Jesus is coming soon
(CH)
Our glorious King is coming soon, it may be darkest night, it may be morn or noon
In glory then His saints will reign, Jesus is coming soon
(CH)
Awake, ye nations, from the dead, with everlasting joy let praise your tongues employ
By this sweet hope be comforted, Jesus is coming soon
(CH)
All praise and glory to His name! The King of kings is He, earth’s Sovereign yet to be
Let all the saints aloud proclaim, Jesus is coming soon
(CH)
As I have said, the
“He shall crush your head, and you shall lie in wait for his heel”; indeed, some saw this as a crushing blow to their authority and did but look for weak spots to attack me in even as they pretended to support me. Their gifts have been weakened, tho’, in their denial.
And of course the same Verse does apply to the Immaculate
Conception, as the Virgin Mary did crush Satan’s grip in that. But I adopted you
as children even as God hath done, even as did Jesus. So how serious does that
make your sins against me ?? I carry His Gift of Beatific
Vision whether you see it or not; if you think to stand against me is integrity, I must say it is at a loss of your grace and so a
bulwark of the worldly
One the city of
And yes, that goes back to the fact some have tried to say Jesus was not Divine until He was ordained in the priesthood, which is false as He was Ordained by God merely thru’ Immaculate Conception. Thus if you would sing this song do it in light of the first Zion, and so stand with me against the second – for the second does harbor denial and so stunts progression of the soul, and that is exactly where the Islamic fervor against “the Zionists” actually stems from. Realize that here today.
Amen, amen.
We’re Marching to
=================
Come, we that love the Lord, and let our joys be known
Join in a song with sweet accord, join in a song with sweet accord
And thus surround the throne, and thus surround the throne
(CH) We’re marching
to
We’re marching upward
to
Let those refuse to sing who never knew our God
But children of the heavenly King, but children of the heavenly King
May speak their joys abroad, may speak their joys abroad

The hill of Zion yields a thousand sacred sweets
Before we reach the heavenly fields, before we reach the heavenly fields
Or walk the golden streets, or walk the golden streets

Then let our songs abound, and every tear be dry
We’re marching thru’ Immanuel’s ground, we’re marching thru’ Immanuel’s ground
To fairer worlds on high, to fairer worlds on high

How many times have I asked people to join in songs of praise unto God ??
And how many have refused ??
And how many cannot see that the city of
Thus there is confusion here to deal with, in that tho’ in
one way
Verily, both the heavenly
I am that Watchman, remember ??
Let your songs of faith abound, then, as I have asked
before, and wipe the tears from your eyes if this has caused you to cry. This
is God’s ground, and there are fairer things to find ahead – both here and
on High. I have been a hill of the True Zion, marching thru’ the mountains and
against the bulwarks of the earthly
Let me tell you what the earthly form of
“Hell hath no fury like a Wall Street forecast” ?? What idiot thought to say that ??
Hell hath no fury like a Messenger denied, because that hell’s fury carries not love – but to deny me is to deny something better for thine ownself. Verily, people do tend to seek that which satisfies them thru’ material pleasure (which is why so many have denied me). My aim is not in material pleasure but in fulfillment of needs and spiritual wholeness as a body and a Church. Get Right. Amen, amen.
The Comforter Has Come
===================
O spread the tidings ‘round, wherever man is found
Wherever human hearts and human woes abound
Let every Christian tongue proclaim the joyful sound
The Comforter has come
The long, long night is past, the morning breaks at last
And hushed the dreadful wail and fury of the blast
As o’er the golden hills the day advances fast
The Comforter has come
Lo, the great King of kings, with healing in His wings
To every captive soul a full deliverance brings
And thru’ the vacant cells the song of triumph rings
The Comforter has come
O boundless love divine! How shall this tongue of mine
To wondering mortals tell the matchless grace divine
That I, a child of hell, should in His image shine
The Comforter has come
Some, when I said I was the Comforter, did only say no, that Christ was that one, or Muhammad was that one, or some other was that one. But the dawn is not yet broken; still it is dark night, but only because that you refuse to see. The Comforter is not a child of hell, as this song seems to relate, but a child of God – a peacemaker, with “healing in his wings”… yet if you refuse to find comfort in his wings, you will lose your chance to escape the dreadful wail and furious blast of the host which He would Send in His Wrath.
This tongue of mine hath given many things of His Grace; this tongue of mine hath given many things of His Truth, and His Love Divine; as His Chosen Servant I have shone, yet many considered me a spawn of hell because that they refused to grow in understanding.
Wonder no more, then, but know I am His Messenger. I would remind Muslims that there is still that “last Revelation” to find, and that it will only be found between myself and two believing Muslims, who must first prove their faith in me, to me, thru’ mine own test.
Only boundless love and great faith can get you thru’ that, and to live a full life you must get past the lust of flesh and pride of life – but while it is True that it is unwholesome to seek to know everything it is also unwholesome not to learn what is clearly Given to you.
And while some of those who merely wanted to kill me might now be thinking it better to lock me up or even just force me to walk away, it would be better for them to walk away from the world themselves or lock themselves away if they can do nothing better for me.
Yet to go on…
Trust and Obey
============
When we (A)walk with the (E)Lord in the (D)Light of His (A)Word
What a (D)glory He (A)sheds on our (E)way
While we (A)do His good (E)Will, He a-(D)bides with us (A)still
And with (D)all who (E)trust and (A)obey
(CH) (A)Trust and obey, for there’s (D)no other way
To be (D)happy in (A)Jesus but to (E)trust and obey
(A)Trust and obey, for there’s (D)no other way
To be (D)happy in (A)Jesus but to (E)trust and o-(A)bey
Not a shadow can rise, not a cloud in the skies
But His smile quickly drives it away
Not a doubt or a fear, not a sigh or a tear
Can abide while we trust and obey
(CH)
Not a burden we bear, not a sorrow we share
But our toil He doth richly repay
Not a grief nor a loss, not a frown or a cross
But is blest if we trust and obey
(CH)
But we never can prove the delights of His love
Until all on the altar we lay
For the favor He shows, and the joy He bestows
Are for them who will trust and obey
(CH)
Then in fellowship sweet we will sit at His feet
Or we’ll walk by His side in the Way
What He say we will do, where He sends we will go
Never fear, only trust and obey
(CH)
It should be quite evident that even tho’ people trust the Lord and obey Him as they can, He does not always repay us in worldly life – but for those who cling to that sense while facing their burdens as He Tests them, they will be repaid in life after death. God does not always look down and smile to drive away the shadows in our lives but leaves it to us to drive them away of our own accord, even tho’ He does usually Lend help in that. And Truly doubt and fear are always present in life, as but temptations you must overcome.
Yet if you had been trusting of me as His Messenger and obeying in these things you would have had no need for fear, nor doubt.
Lay yourselves on the altar today, then. Give up the things which keep you from growing in this understanding – that you find His Favor thru’ that, and so allow Him to Prove to you the delights of His Love thru’ His Leave in His Grace and His Mercy. Amen, amen.
Can I get another Amen ??
The Breaking of the Day
===================
‘Tis almost time for the Lord to come, I hear the people say
The stars of heaven are growing dim, it must be the breaking of the day
(CH) It must be the breaking of the day
O, it must be the breaking of the day
The night is almost gone, the day is coming on
O it must be the breaking of the day
The signs foretold in the sun and moon, in earth and sea and sky
Aloud proclaim to mortal men, that the coming of the Master draweth nigh
It must be time for the waiting church to cast her pride away
With girded loins and burning lamps to look for the breaking of the day
There must be those in the field of sin, from the fold astray
Who once were happy in Jesus’ love, and looking for the breaking of the day
Go quickly out in the streets and lanes, and in the broad highway
And call the maimed, the balt and blind, to be ready for the breaking of the day
Are you ready for the breaking of the day ??
Do you wonder what day that shall be ??
At Best it will be a Day of Blessing; at worst, the Day of
Judgment. He hath Many Days, even as He hath
‘Tis almost time for the Lord to come, alright; the Lord thy God, in His Wrath. Again I would point out how the nebulae deemed the “Eye of God” is ebbing, and it is time for the night to give way to dawn. Yet if you refuse to help, to you it will be forever night.
And a nightmare, at that.
Manifest Truth, people. How else do you think He Works thru’ us ??
He Works thru’ us in the largest and smallest of our ways, but the ways of sin are not the ones we are to choose from.
And indeed, there are those who once were happy in Jesus’ love, and those who still are; but without growth you will find yourself in the field of sin, in a fold astray. Go out, then; prepare yourselves, and others, thru’ standing in Right ways and singing out His praise.
It is time for the “waiting church” to cast their pride away. These teachings will gird you, and be a lamp unto you, if you but believe – and thus I beseech thee, that ye sing in praise from the goodness of your heart with me today, and show to Him thy love. Amen, amen.
Let His Love stand you upright. Acknowledge Him in acceptance of what I have given, and in all of thy ways, that He Straights thy ways as He Straightened mine. Verily, tho’ many fought against me the love some showed, and the Love He Shared, did uplift me.
Love Lifted Me
============
(D)I was sinking (A)deep in sin, (D)far from the peaceful (A)shore
(G)Very deeply (D)stained within, (D)sinking to rise no (A)more
(D)But the Master (A)of the sea (D)Heard my despairing (A)cry
(G)From the waters (D)lifted me, (D)now safe am (A)I
(CH) (D)Love (A)lifted (D)me, (D)Love (G)lifted (A)me
(G)When nothing (D)else could help, (A)Love (G)lifted (A)me
(D)Love (A)lifted (D)me, (D)Love (G)lifted (A)me
(G)When nothing (D)else could help, (A)Love (G)lifted (D)me
All my heart to Him I give, ever to Him I’ll cling
In His blessed Presence live, ever His praises sing
Love so Mighty and so True Merits my soul’s best songs
Faithful loving service, too, to Him belongs
(CH)
Souls in danger, look above, Jesus completely saves
He will lift you by His love out of the angry waves
He’s the Master of the sea, billows His will obey
He your Savior wants to be, be Saved today
(CH)
When nothing else could help, Love lifted me
No, it is not that I was sinking in sin; but many were, and their sins had greatly upset the balance of things in the world. And it was not that I was despairing, but that many were and He Brought me to answer their cries. Actually mine own shores have been peaceful; but the weight of the world was leaning against them, and that He did Show to me. There is nothing that will help today more than love, people. Love in your hearts, and love in your songs; love, and mercy, and grace, and giving ways; these are but a part of the many things you must carry in your life in order to live it in Right ways – and it was His Love, so Mighty and True, thru’ which I have fought to bring these things to you, for they are my soul’s best songs and did merit me in my faithful service unto Him and unto others whether you want to recognize that or not.
Souls are in danger, indeed.
But Jesus is not going to save you if you will not live in His example, and one of those things, as I pointed out above, was in studious learning of all things available to you. You are the sons of light, and it is mine to instruct you further thru’ your own understandings.
Just As I Am
==========
Just (A)as I am, with-(E)out one (A)plea, but (E)that Thy blood was (D)shed for (A)me
And (A)that Thou bidd’st me (D)come to Thee, O (A)Lamb of God, I (E)come, I (A)come
Just as I am, and waiting not, to rid my soul of one dark blot
To Thee whose blood can cleanse each spot, O Lamb of God, I come, I come
Just as I am, tho’ tossed about, with many a conflict, many a doubt
Fightings and fears within, without, O Lamb of God, I come, I come
Just as I am, poor, wretched, blind; sight, riches, healing of the mind
Yea, all I need, in Thee to find, O Lamb of God, I come, I come
Just as I am, Thou wilt receive, wilt welcome, pardon, cleanse, receive
Because Thy promise I believe, O Lamb of God, I come, I come
God will take you into
Conflicts you need strive to overcome in good faith while seeking good ends, and doubt you need strive to overcome in good faith thru’ recognition of Truths. Wait not to rid thy soul of the dark blots, but find greater faith than you have ever found: thru’ these works.
Christ’s blood was Shed upon the cross in showing the shamefulness of powers that be, that in the future they might better see and so know what it is they do – but if all you can think to do is to persecute me for my beliefs you will find yourselves damned for eternity.
Make Me a Blessing
===============
Out in the highways and byways of life, many are weary and sad
Carry the sunshine where darkness is rife, making the sorrowing glad
(CH) Make me a blessing, make me a blessing
Out of my life
May Jesus shine
Make me a blessing, O Savior
Tell the sweet story of Christ and His love, tell of the power to forgive
Others will trust Him if only you prove True, every moment you live
(CH)
Give as ‘twas given to you in your need, Love as the Master loved you
Be to the helpless a
helper indeed, unto your
(CH)
Which of you will not seek to make a blessing of himself today ??
And which of you will only claim that I have not done that myself ??
“Carry the sunshine where darkness is rife”… indeed, that I have done… but were you one to accept it, or to deny it ??
And if you denied me, will you only do so again ?? This ‘twas given you in your hour of need, and would have helped you if you had only taken it into your heart and turned to be healed. I am proven True here: and so do I expect you to trust in Him, and do the same.
Rock of Ages
==========
Rock of (G)Ages, (C)cleft for (G)me, let me (D)hide myself in (G)Thee
Let the (D)water and the (G)blood, from Thy (D)wounded side which (G)flowed
(C)Be of (G)sin the (C)double (G)cure, save from (D)Wrath and make me (G)pure
Could my tears forever flow, could my zeal no languor know
These for sin could not atone; Thou must save and Thou alone
In my hand no price I bring, simply to Thy cross I cling
While I draw this fleeting breath, when my eyes shall close in death
When I rise to worlds unknown, and behold Thee on Thy throne
Rock of Ages, cleft for me, let me hide myself in Thee
This fleeting breath indeed; so short is the span of time we call a lifetime. But the Rock of Ages is God, and the only throne you will find Christ resting upon is the throne you give Him in your heart, knowing He is integral to the Lord thy God’s Gifts and Works.
Thus it is that you need not wait for death to behold Him on a throne; and tho’ you can hide yourself in Him throughout life if you realize this, you still can never hide from the wicked ones of the world except if you have joy in your heart in knowing you are Saved.
But to be True in that, you must realize and profess that I, as one of that same Sonship, did renew your faith today – regardless of any who threaten you because of it. Those of power and great influence still do not wish to admit it: they feel it makes them look bad.
But I will rise to worlds unknown to you, and stand again – hoping that for your sins you will atone, now and forever in your years.
Amen, amen. My wound flows as well even now, in knowledge. Be joyous for that, that it does heal you as a people.
The Old Account Settled
===================
There was a time on earth when in the Book of Heaven
An old account was standing for sins yet unforgiven
My name was at the top, and many things below
I went unto the Keeper and settled long ago
(CH) Long ago, down on my knees
Long ago, I settled it all
Yes, the old account was settled long ago
And the record’s clear today, for He washed my sins today
When the old account was settled long ago
The old account was large and growing every day
For I was always sinning, and never tried to pay
But when I looked ahead and saw such pain and woe
I said that I would settle, I settled long ago
(CH)
When at the judgment bar I stand before my King
And He the Book will open, He cannot find a thing
Then will my heart be glad while tears of joy will flow
Because I had it settled, and settled long ago
(CH)
When in that happy home, my Savior’s home above
I’ll sing redemption’s story, and praise Him for His love
I’ll not forget that book, with pages white as snow
Because I came and settled, and settled long ago
(CH)
Oh sinner, seek the Lord, repent of all your sin
For thus He hath Commanded, if you would enter in
And then if you should live a hundred years below
Up there you’ll not regret it, you settled long ago
(CH)
Some will claim they are already saved today, disregarding all I did bring to this table; and so will they try to go back to their lives and forget all this, or worse yet, take further aim against me because of it. Can they not see those things will be in that Book ?? Don’t just sit back and say Christ already paid for your sins. Sing, and praise God, and repent of your sins. This He hath Commanded: get Right.
Is Thy Heart Right with God?
======================
Have thy affections been nailed to the cross? Is thy heart Right with God?
Dost thou count all things for Jesus but loss? Is thy heart Right with God?
(CH) Is thy heart Right with God, washed in the crimson flood
Cleansed and made holy, humble and lowly, Right in the sight of God?
Hast thou dominion o’er self and o’er sin? Is thy heart Right with God?
Over all evil without and within? Is thy heart Right with God?
(CH)
Is there no more condemnation for sin? Is thy heart Right with God?
Does Jesus rule in the temple within? Is thy heart Right with God?
(CH)
Are all thy powers under Jesus’ control? Is thy heart Right with God?
Does He each moment abide in thy soul? Is thy heart Right with God?
(CH)
Art thou now walking in Heaven’s Pure Light? Is thy heart Right with God?
Is thy soul wearing the garment of white? Is thy heart Right with God?
(CH)
I saw the Congressional investigation into the incident in Waco concerning the Davidians and Congress was much in agreement with mine own view that the government did Truly overstep their boundaries. Yet if they did something similar today with me, who would speak against them ?? License to kill ?? I have forgiven many people of many things even when they did not deserve it, but there comes a point where one must say “Forgiveness is of the Lord’s” – and if you cross that point with me today I will leave you in your shame.
The only “license” you have in this world is to be good and pious believers, and whatever sin you do you will answer to God for.
Forget not that according to Chinese legend there are two
dragons in this world; one good, and one evil. That would relate the tiger of
Learn them, then, knowing they are a burden I carry for you because that the Lord thy God did Give it to me to do. Amen, amen.
The Old Rugged Cross
=================
On a (E)hill far away stood an (A)old rugged cross
The (B)emblem of suffering and (E)shame
And I (E)love that old cross where the (A)dearest and best
For a (B)world of lost sinners was (E)slain
(CH) So I’ll (B)cherish the old rugged (E)cross, ‘til my (A)trophies at last I lay (E)down
I will (E)cling to the old rugged (A)cross, and (E)exchange it some (B)day for a (E)crown
Oh, that old rugged cross so despised by the world
Has a wondrous attraction for me
For the dear Lamb of God left His glory above
To bear it to dark Cavalry
(CH)
In the old rugged cross, stained with blood so divine
A wondrous beauty I see
For ‘twas on that old cross Jesus suffered and died
To pardon and sanctify me
(CH)
To the old rugged cross I will ever be true
Its shame and reproach gladly bear
Then He’ll call me someday to my home far away
Where His glory forever I’ll share
(CH)
I will cling to the old rugged cross, and exchange it some day for a crown
First of all realize, the crown to hope for in life is nothing more than salvation at the end of it. Second of all, in recognition of what was said in my last memoir you should realize that whether Christ died or not he did hang upon that cross, and so it is both a symbol of His suffering and of the shame of those who set Him upon it, as well as a hope to carry in your hearts that thru’ His suffering, as having been God’s sacrificial Lamb, He hath the power to stand up for you in your death should you stand for Him in life. Be True to Him.
Amen, amen.
I happen to believe, still, that the Truth of Jesus’ existence was to spark new life into the Church, and in snuffing the spark of life from Him it was rekindled thru’ the Resurrection – that we might be witness unto that even unto this day, despite those who but disbelieve.
John Hagee: what was that about a drunk husband, a king, and a body cast ?? Hopefully you aimed it not at me, for there is no “milk and honey” to ever be found in ridiculing His Servants except if that honey jar is stuck on your nose – and then you cannot drink milk.
So what is good for the body ??
I am Michael, and the spirit of Truth is in me. One Catholic noted he felt the mission of one such as me was two-fold: that it is upon me to “fulfill important missions to men on certain solemn occasions” and “preside over provinces, dioceses, and religious bodies”…
This is a solemn occasion, and a dark hour; yet there is a bright side to it even as is Made clear in Daniel 12. Prove yourself the Wise, and not the wicked, thru’ me. My kingdom is not of this world; I am a Lamb among wolves, even in a den of lions – and regardless of what comes to me in this world I shall wear a crown in heaven when He Gives to me that River, as is Told in the Qur’an. Amen, amen.
But I pray for those throughout the world who are against me even as I try to bring them to their senses. Yet here I turn, to come home.
=======
(E)My country, (B) ‘tis of thee, (E)sweet land of (A)liberty, (E)of (B)thee I (E)sing
(E)Land where my fathers died, (B)land of the pilgrim’s pride
(E)From every (A)mountainside, let (E)free-(B)dom (E)ring
My native country, thee, land of the noble free, thy name I love
I love thy rocks and rills, thy woods and templed hills
My heart with rapture thrills, like that above
Let music swell the breeze, and ring from all the trees, sweet freedom’s song
Let mortal tongues awake, let all that breathe parthake
Let rocks their silence break, the song prolong
Our fathers’ God, to thee, Author of liberty, to Thee we sing
Long may our land be bright, with freedom’s holy light
Protect us by Thy Might, Great God, our King
It goes back to the song of the native son, and the Chinese note of the son whose blood stops boiling. Mine has been calm for long while others raged; and I merely seek to add that which would brighten your lives if ye but allow it, as an Author and Finisher of faith.
But your faith will never be complete except if it is united in its common bonds with the faith, and the Truths, of others.
And still I seek freedom and plenty; but again today you will be loosed in your own free will to do whatever you will do.
May God bless thee, then, that ye shall do Right. Amen, amen, amen.
I would ask that ye pray for a Presbyterian minister named Rick Lucas today. He led a good life but fell to Parkinson’s disease some time ago, and as I came to know him a bit and hear him preach a close friend of his even said he believes it possible Jesus and Mary Magdalene did leave a bloodline in their wake. With God all things are possible; so who is anyone to see it cannot have been ??
“Bohemian Rhapsody” ?? Does anyone
remember Jan Hus ?? After Czechoslavakia emerged
as a Christian nation it began to form its own literature concerning the matter,
and in the 13th and 14th centuries (A.D.) it had formed
in great part. Jan Hus was a great reformer in the
Church but was killed because of it – not upon a cross, but at the stake. That
led to the Hussite wars, which lasted some 15 years;
and in the midst of that war another rose, Petr Chelcicky, who wrote the “Net of Faith”, a powerful plea
for Christian pacifism and anarchism. I might remind you that in a pure form of
the word I am an anarchist myself; but in translating the Bible and writing
hymns and religious prose Petr became the spiritual
father of the “Bohemian brethren” which played a leading part in Czech
literature thru’ which humanism flourished for a time. My point, tho’, is to
show he too stressed songs of praise in renewal of faith. But
So I pray that ye find your own heart’s desire, in good and believing ways. Amen, amen.
I should add of the American Civil War, that it was not just about freeing slaves but about sharing of wealth. The South, where slavery was prominent, had hoarded money and did not want to give of it to the Northern states who needed help: but Charity was their need.
Faith, Hope, and Charity; verily, the crux of that war was also about resolving differences over the greed which plagued our nation.
And that is as much a part of this today as anything else.
But what can I say about
Prior to my birth the country was governed by a president
and vice-president, and a cabinet consisting of a prime minister, twelve heads
of departments, and three other ministers. They had a Congress of 54 senators in
which legislative power was rested and a House of Representatives having 125
members, along with elections. They even had a Supreme Court, and each province
was administered by a governor. All that is basically gone now, tho’ I have
hopes that Fidel Castro, in his waning years, will set that matter Right and
not just hand over his reign to another dictator. The fact is, it was not
Amen. Instill hope within others thru’ lending of faithful liberties, and if your heart and theirs are True the same shall return unto you. As for me, I know my heart is True and I have proven it here; but it is up to others to prove themselves now, in clear sight of God – and so whatever comes to me after this will be but proof of you, in your own heart, as to whether you are faithful believers or not.
Psalm 139:8… if I go up to the heavens, You are there… if I make my bed in the depths, You are there…
Whether one bends himself in grace and submits to seeking good ends in faith of those things He Lends thru’ His Servants, or leads a life hell-bound, the Lord doth See all that he does and he will be Made to answer for it. But if he answers for it in life thru’ good and believing ways it will be much easier for him come that Day. Therefore must one seek peace in his heart and so reform himself thru’ the goodness that is in his heart, that he may be of True worth in finding proper reform within the world. Amen, amen, amen.
I should note: a man stood to say he was going to arrest me today, and I told him he had no jurisdiction to do so. His answer was “maybe next time” – but I have to say, there is no court of law here which can Rightfully give man jurisdiction over the Chosen of God.
But I did read today where Catholics might consider all this an “empty ceremony” – if they conclude that because they ordained me not I have no authority, or that my intent is not proper, or that the subject matter is not fitting. Condemn me if you will, but know that you would only condemn yourselves. I am Ordained as His Chosen Servant, and so have His Authority and Permission in these things; my intent is for reform, and for your own well-being; and the subject matter, tho’ you may not like it, has been quite fitting indeed.
What is the symbol of the seven sacraments, then, but a lamb upon the fountain of living waters – pouring out water, wherein are seen the keys, and the Cup, among other things ?? if you want to call me a heretic or say I am sacrilegious, I will say the same of you.
But did you hear what the Seven Thunders did Say today ??
Whether you want to claim me in your faith is not the point; your need is to realize I hold the keys to Unity between you in good faith of all things. If you understand me not, prove yourself as a disciple: that I may share more with you. I am a prince among angels and a king among men – even as I am but a shepherd and a part of God’s flock. Cause me not to be the last of His Chosen to walk with thee.
Amen, amen, amen.
Revelation: the drawing back of a veil; the communication of Truths by God thru’ supernatural means. This that has been.
But what is faith ?? In its widest sense, acceptance of things we know and understand not – simply because one tells us it is True. So tho’ you may say what you already have is a share of knowledge which the human intellect could never discover, it is never complete.
Reason can lead us to some Truths, but many others our reasoning cannot grasp because that it is limited and finite. I did shew thee things both of natural and supernatural faith today which you must believe and know, and do, in order to find happiness in life – even things which you have thrown away. Asha !! Learn it and let it bring unto you Happiness, the Best of all Righteousness. Amen, amen.
It is True that as Pope Pius XI said, communism, even as is atheism, is a satanic scourge – for they are enemies of Christ. We must not hate them, tho’, but smother them with goodness where we can without giving them too long a leash. One once said that the devil is like a chained dog, that he cannot bite us unless we get too close – and in a sense he was Right. But if you think I am that dark one, try getting close to me. I do not bite those who prove themselves worthy and believing. If I bit anyone it was because that in denial they refused to grow, in which case it was to awaken them; or those who were totally without faith, in which case it was to reform them. But in most cases they had already bitten me, or someone else who did not deserve their attacks – in which case I was defending my brethren. Call me a dog if you want, but you will only be attacking me in that instead of trying to get close to me and so learn. I will see your purpose in your eyes when I meet you, so don’t try to fool me – for the eyes are the windows of your soul. Remember ??
Once bitten, twice shy ?? I am not shy except with most women, and neither do I back down in these things; but I do love the song.
Yet for any who would bite me, know that I do not always turn the other cheek. At times I bite back, when I see the need. Indeed, even God’s Servants are as dogs upon a chain – but they are on His leash, not on Satan’s. They defend humanity, instead of attacking it.
I noted one description of the Bible as a collection of
sacred books of which God is the principal author, written by men inspired and
guided by the Spirit and containing “much of what God has revealed to the human
race”… obviously, then, by this it is not all of that which God hath
Revealed to man; and so it is my point – even as it is theirs – that indeed, sacraments,
or testimonies of Truths, can be afforded thru’ others. That just goes back to
the Truths of others, then; but tell me, where shall be your firm purpose of amendment ?? Lie not, nor set thyself against me, lest thy
faith be dead. Your confirmation, your orders, nor even your matrimony are of
greatest concern: for you are shipwrecked, and it is your penance alone which
may save thee. Thus draw water with joy out of this fountain – it is
indispensable where sanctifying grace is concerned, and only thru’ acceptance
of it and renewal of thy faith might other matters of faith be properly restored
in thy sacraments, and in thy sacrifices. Indeed, True Faith calls for firm and
unquestioning belief in all that God has Revealed – and He hath Revealed things
here today, thru’ me. Yet if you think I must be a member of your church to be
a living voice of the
It is built upon the old. Note, then, that as by inspiration
it is said God Moves and Directs His Chosen to write and in that they are
authors tho’ He is the Principal of their writings, you must admit that as both
Jeremiah and Muhammad said, as humans they are still prone to mistakes. Yet on
the whole their work is True, and the same is True of
mine. I found written in an old Masonic book a Roman Catholic admission that “over
a period of 250 years the emperors of pagan
Again, “let your light shine before men, in order that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father in heaven”… these are my good works regardless of whether you believe in them or not, and they shine, and I give glory unto the Father in heaven…
But if in denial you sing not with me in praise you will find little to be thankful for when at last you do reach the end of your road – or should I say, the end of your rope ?? Don’t hang yourself in denial, people. Daniel 12: wake up, and know that I am True, and that without good seed and a good rain crops become unfruitful, and tho’ they may sustain thee the seed becomes barren (even as Monsanto’s crops bear no seed). This is new seed, and shows enough Oneness with the old that it would revive thee; and in that revival thou wouldst find thy faith fruitful again. So I beg of thee, get Right, for thine own sake – for if you but refuse to learn this from me you might as well start over again in Scripture with what is said of those who are worms. Be not stingy, neither with thy faith nor thy means.
If you care for nothing but amusement and generally waste your time, if you seek your comfort above that of others, if you are careless in your choice of companions or studies, if you are afraid of sacrifice and inconvenience or shirk responsibility in applying yourself in meaningful things and faithful duties, worldliness has overcome you and you cannot see that which the Lord Expects you to see.
But if you are Truly faithful you will find True enjoyment in being responsible, in finding meaningful ways to lend thy faith unto others, in seeking to comfort others and sacrifice your own comfort for theirs, and your studies will lead you to see what has not been seen.
“Mr. T” is back, to talk. His concern is to help people realize their potential; and you should see, so is mine. And Mr. Stern is back, with a smile. May God bless you, brothers, that your impact upon the lives of others today may be of good and harmonious effect.
Amen, amen.
And I wonder; was that
But I pity the fools who will yet refuse to listen to me, and pray for them. Amen, amen. They have not bowed to me nor any other of mankind, which is the very reason Satan himself fell from His Grace – not that you should bow down and worship me nor any other man but that you must be humble in your manners and seek to reform thyselves in the goodness of your heart. Amen, amen.
“Eco-magination”; again, technology in tune with nature. Be sure, brothers, that you do strive in that sense. My mother used to work for your company, and so I will trust you to use your hearts in it; but without that you will be but a part of the failure Satan does seek.
“I think it’s a big can o’ worms”… yes, the ignorant would say that… but note what is said of worms in Scripture and in this song of praise. Take it into your heart; know I am an Apostle unto the nations and let it lend you hope, as it does unto me. The Lord does always Give you sufficient grace to combat the devil and the demons, and He hath Given the same unto me here again – but it will be your own free will that will be as a Test unto thee today, in whether you will be one to answer this prayer or not. Amen, amen, amen.

I would commend again a number of people for what I have
heard and seen in them in response to these things; but tho’ the list is long I
will keep it short. First off is President Abbas for
his spirit in tackling extremist issues and fighting to keep the peace between
Palestine and
I made great efforts for peace here and many did answer to it, and I thank the Lord for that. But some looked around in speaking of peace without acknowledging my efforts – so it has come to this, the moment of Truth: I heard one say “I’m about to open a door and look thru’ my son’s eyes.” Well, that’s one way of starting over; but it goes back to what the Qur’an gave of a nation giving birth to a master – and tho’ many have accepted that knowing I seek no earthly crown, many others are unwilling to open any door for me.
“My glasses are broken.” Well, get a new pair and try again. If you find yourself healed you won’t need them in being faithful.
It was not heartening to know that some looked at this meal and thought I was trying to “pull a fast one”; but I was glad to hear one “doctor” reflect that it is essential for people to incorporate these things into their beliefs and deeds. That is the very point of accepting clear Truths, and this should be clear enough. God bless you, brother. I thank God thou art proving thyself in harmony with this.
Amen, amen.
Another man felt I was nothing of a carpenter and ranted in asking if anyone knew where to find one when he knew where I was – as if he felt I needed to be replaced. But there are none here who can take over this work; I am Chosen, no other has that Communion.
But I search for those of tried and true hearts that might help if only they are willing to listen to something new.
And here is one I would hope to find do that today…
Jerry Falwell: you have been a voice of reason and faith in the past, and well should you know what it is to make enemies as have I – so I wonder, would you care to sit and speak with me ?? Your beliefs and mine may not be the same, but again, the Truths of others are something all should look to realize. Actually in your own day you criticized people more than I ever did here, and tho’ I do not wish to carry things so heatedly I believe the two of us could work together. Think about it, then. I would be honored to sit with you.
Amen, amen.
I heard “Dr. Phil” say criticism does nothing to help situations when they are out of hand – and yet he criticizes many, sometimes within reason and sometimes not. So what does that say of him ?? If you believe what you said, Sir, stop criticizing people; but what you said goes against what certain “life coaches” pointed out in their own aim to help others start over. Constructive criticism is necessary, for without that people are generally not open to suggestion; but if you want to call me a heretic I will say you are a disbeliever.
One man admitted he had flown into a rage and attacked me; but he falsely attested that a brawl had ensued instead of further admitting he kept up his attacks on my character even tho’ I ignored his comments for long. Yet his actions will haunt him while he keeps it up.
And one man made it fair-seeming to say I shot you in the head, and another said I raped you; but that is reason without faith.
There are those I must stand against as part of my duty unto God, as long as they work against me – and as noted by Keith Jackson, ya gotta have some fight in your soul. Truth Is, I do – yet Truth Is, tho’ you must find the end of the road thru’ the gold in your heart it is not for you to let back-biters stand on the bulwarks. This is in my Right hand, with His Authority and Permission. But like “Elmer” some took that “fight” to rest it against me, proudly denying they were against His Messenger and so against Him. They would rather you thought me wrong; yet I will be Proven, and the sin of their pride will weigh heavy against them in Judgment – but if you listen to them rather than me they may likely convince you I am but telling tales, and such as that is untrue. Remember what was said of the “bands of evil priests” which would be after me ?? These are a part of those, looking to do all they can to bring about my ruin.
And verily it is as I said before: tho’ I am within my boundaries they are not, for it is not within their boundaries to defy His Chosen.
And as I have said before, some I said nothing but good things about turned around and stabbed me in the back with their denials, and others joined them in it. Truly they have only shamed themselves, tho’. Moses would have cursed them; David would either have stoned them or slew them; Joshua would have caved in their houses; Muhammad would have slit their throats from ear to ear; and whatever I do they will deserve it. Jesus ?? Ol’ “Elmer” would never have made it past the bodyguards; he would already have been labeled as a dog. And yes, I did say bodyguards. Some of the disciples did carry weapons, as I have mentioned before.
But the “tag teams” were obsessed with putting me down. I carried warnings alongside glad tidings, that people may better see their errors and recognize the Straight Path in seeking reform – yet one, while ragging.on Mormons, said the things he knows of God he could count on one hand. Five little fingers, in a world so large. What, can your fingers not turn the pages of a Bible or the Qur’an, or even this ?? Learn to scroll and learn more of God; admit you don’t have all the answers. I got love in my heart for ya, but ya ain’t getting’ it the way you’re goin’. This is not about personal appearances but rather attitudes and faithful designs: things you are lacking.
But verily, admonishing disbelievers in hope that they
reform themselves is exactly what I noted before of sport-fishing, that I reel
them in and let them go. If you want to twist it and see it a hunting license,
well, it IS turkey season. Consider it good fortune I do not serve your
head on a platter, as was done to John the Baptist by those who knew not the
Lord – and consider to tell “Elmer”, the “back-biter”, that this is turkey
season, and he is the turkey here. Perhaps in that he will realize he
needs hunt down his own demons – but that remains to be seen. Yes,
perhaps this was a shot I took; but it was a warning shot in constructive
criticism, in hope that perhaps he will tame his tongue and so hide himself
lest anything worse happens. But “Elmer” implied today that I am in for an ass-kickin’ – and he is an infidel, and I have turned my cheek
to him enough. I have half a mind to say to hell with him but will give him another
chance to change his tune. So, “Elmer”, if ever you face me you had Best not be disrespectful lest I kick yer
fat complacent ass. We all make mistakes; but you refused to recognize yours
and are a back-biting hypocrite. Get some Amen in yer
diet. It is my place to uplift you even if I must admonish you; and this I
offer in peace, as I could have said worse – and I pray for you, even tho’ you
attack me. But if you keep it up you will pay for it with your soul, for you
will certainly not be in the Lord’s good Grace. You are a bulwark of the
worldly
“Ball o’ yarn” ?? I heard that. Stop knitting stories, fool.
Perhaps some still think I should sit by and suffer their accusations without returning fire, but that goes back to Jesus’ “bodyguards” in that I noted some pictures of the disciples in a church’s windows today wherein Thomas held a knife, and yet another carried a spear.
And we are Told in Scripture that at least one of them carried a sword. The disciples were not just men of principle and faith, then, but of strength – and if ye cannot see that in such they were an extension of God as His Armor and Shield and Rod and Staff unto Jesus, well, you are again blinding thine ownself. But in light of this I think it only Right that I should carry a weapon, knowing it as an extension of His Rod and Staff, if none carry it for me as the disciples did for Jesus. In Truth there are two kinds of lions within the den, those who are believing and righteous and those who but attack me; and whether Thomas will be as “Brut” and stab me in the back with that knife today or not is yet to see. Don’t get me wrong; that is not aimed at anyone in particular. Overall Jesus taught love and fair practices; but I must defend myself today, so whether you think you can keep me from it thru’ the laws of man or not you should realize: in the Laws of God I am Permitted that and there is nothing you can say or do to Rightfully keep me from it. Whatever weapon I choose will be of His Choosing, even as He Chose me – even as He Chose for me a pen, and a laptop – and if I take another for mine own from a disbeliever who offends me it is claimed from the unworthy in His Many Names.
Words of denial are arrows from that bow of denial I spoke of, and the Qur’an did touch upon Truth in such arrows. I battle disbelief; and if I take their denial and turn it to belief they are blessed in it; but if I clash with them it is in the Name of He Who Is. Amen ??
Amen. It is a parable unto stripping the ball, in football; stealing the ball, in basketball, or a base, in baseball, and quite legal in His Many Ways – and if the deniers want to keep on playing their little games, well, I can play them too. All’s fair in love and war ?? Only if you believe in God and His Messengers, Prophets, and Teachers, and in Jesus Christ, and in Truths of others as they are revealed here.
This IS the Oneness, which you are to believe and uphold me in as His Messenger. Know that this day. Amen, amen. For ye who believe in me, get behind me; that ye may reach the end of this road whole and pure at heart. May God Preserve you. Amen, amen. Allah; Jehovah; it matters little. He Is the God of Noah; the God of Abraham; the God of Moses; the God of Daniel; the Eternal and Divine One above all lesser deities. Find the good end and new beginning yet to be found in common bonds of Faith thru’ Unity. Amen, amen.
One House of the Lord: that, is the ultimate goal. Yet tho’ Satan hopes to keep us from it, he will also try to usurp it if it forms – that must ye always safeguard it, to ensure no man can proclaim himself to be God. Get up here on the roof and help me, then, for I cannot do it alone. I am but one man, His Vessel, and many attack me relentlessly even tho’ my proofs have been clear. Amen, amen.
And for ye who believe in me not, I beseech thee to find yourselves as believers in this today. Amen, amen. This is the Gathering; so ask yourself, what you hope to see come of that Meeting with God: His Blessing, or His Curse ?? Indeed it is coming, believe me – and it can be any one of His Days as depicted in the Truths of old, but it can also be but a Day of Blessing as I have made clear.
Yet your chance for that Day of Blessing is failing. Because that I have been denied so vehemently by so many, many things are falling – and because I have been persecuted I may have to sell my laptop just to get around, and so this may be the last of these notes.
Of course the haters will rejoice in that; but this has been my daily sacrifice. Don’t let it be abolished. I will go on as I can and return here if I can, but some seek my end in favor of their own designs. Disbelieving lions look to consume me, and still I am in that den – for tho’ some tried, none fought hard enough to answer the Call to free me. Yet sacrifice I will carry all my days, in all my ways.
And I will carry you as far as I can, if only you believe – even if it takes me forever and a day. Time, times, and half a time again…
Amen, amen.
Can I get another Amen ??
“He’s gonna take me to the end of the road”; ya gotta have faith in that. Trust in the Lord and believe in His Chosen Servants.
What’cha wanna
say ‘bout thet thar pot o’
gold today,
“Well, I’m searchin’ for a rainbow, and if the wind ever shows me where to go, you’ll be waitin’ in the end, and I know”…
Love the song, brother, and I have seen your heart before. Can you see mine now ??
Yeah, I may get onto someone here or there but it’s for their own good. Jesus did the same thing, and all they need do is accept it.
And ya gotta
figure, Jonah carried admonishments as well. The men of
Does anyone wish to think that “pot o’ gold” (which is, by the way, IS the pot of manna discussed in Revelation) is in President Bush’s hand, or in al-Zarqawi’s hand, or in the Pope’s hand, or in President Ahmadinjad’s hand, or in any others’ hand besides mine ??
“Show me” ?? Show me: if you think you can cover all these things any better give it a try.
One man said he realized that those who had tried to stand up for me had been brutalized to an extent by the deniers – and he is Right, and I commend him for realizing it. It is part of the persecution of the dragon against my family. Those who believe me are my family.
But the dragon has not yet surfaced; still he waits for the time to be ripe, not seeing the heavenly host which waits for him.
And that just goes back to the Thunder Beings, or the Seven Thunders – and I am Michael, a Sentry who stands upon the Bridge.
But some implied I was the “angel of death”, saying I embraced you rather than scaring you to death. Well, because of them I will again note the riders on the four horses; the white, red, black, and pale. I ride the black horse, not the pale, and that last is the angel of death. But again, read Revelation 19; I ride a white horse and my sword is in my mouth, and tho’ war will not come from my hand it will be your blood I am soaked in if denial goes on to lead to war. Oneness, in black and white. Do you yet deny me ?? War against me if you want, but in the end – no matter what you see in this worldly life – I shall prevail and the deniers shall lose. That “war of words” shall bring that end if you keep it up – so nip it in the bud lest it blossoms as a black rose in the shadow of death. Attack me not but tame thy tongue in noting the “green” rider in another reference as a 3rd horseman is one of envy opposing my search for Balance; and that is fostered thru’ many by Satan in his bid to see me fall. Reform thyselves; I know what I speak of and from whence it came. To God disbelievers are expendable tho’ He Looks for them to believe; but that alleviates none from trying to bring them to believe.
Amen, amen.
“
When I was in the army I drove a
And if you don’t think I have the “inside track” here, in His Guidance, you have another think coming…
Yet this is where that experience applies here. The Lord did Cause me to steer you into a turn in the road, for your roads were leading to that end of doom and in Straightening you the Straight Path could be found. I see it that I have made the turn and am waiting for the other track (you) to settle on the Right road; but Satan wants you to see me as careening out of control, and in fear and doubt some scream for me to stop. Yet if God wanted me to stop He would have Stopped me long ago, and it is up to you in free will to realize that.
Truth Is, many were frightened by this sudden turn while others have found it a thrill, and an enjoyment. Yet of the frightened Satan was the greatest; and he answered my courage with anger. He knew one day it would come, but not how; he knows if I am victorious he will again be chained to the pit; but still he thinks he can win, and has whispered into the hearts of others, that they should deny me.
And he is the biggest fool, and to him is the greatest part of blame. Realize that, and seek to reform thyself in light of these things – for if I must walk away today, you must try to go on in belief of them in order to keep Satan from rising. God bless, that you may do so.
Amen, amen.
But do not forget that with me gone Satan will try to twist these things to his advantage. That is why I was to raise up a son, that he might stand in my place when I fall and keep that from coming; but that last Revelation, if I find the two believing Muslims, will help.
Extra ?? One man said the only thing he found Saddam guilty of was looking fabulous – but that is plain foolishness. What did I just say of worldliness and caring for nothing but amusement ?? There is love in my heart even for you, tho’, and I pray thou dost realize it.
You didn’t need to judge Saddam, Sir, as others are appointed to do that; but you should have disapproved of his murderous ways. He gassed the Kurds for years, authorized the rape of innocent women and perhaps children, gathered people in the streets for no good reason and hauled them off to be tortured and killed; and there are numerous bones left in the ground which do attest to all that.
And I have never been like that, tho’ some hope to portray
me as such in order to serve their own disbelieving designs. But
Stop arguing against me and get things done Right. Have a mind to heed the warning of the Quero, that this must be done Right.
Amen, amen, amen.
And have a mind to recognize that I am that Caretaker they spoke of. It is ridiculous to argue here with me. I did ask for and receive the Rights of the Time from Him, and I need that not from any other – but your need is to recognize that such was Granted to me.
“You wanna take on the world ?!?!?”… I already have, Sir, with the love of Jesus in my heart and the double-edged sword of God in my hand and tongue. Should I remind you of its nature ?? It is time you studied. I gave that Truth here before: learn it, and know it is good for you. The glad tiding would be that if you humbly heed my warnings you will suffer not the consequences of ignorance.
Those consequences won’t come from me but from God. Praise Him in acknowledgment of my work and you will find it a blessing.
While it is True there are demonic
forces in this world, they will continue to haunt you for whatever time you
have left if you fail to see that I am a force Set here to keep them from you.
Know that in your heart here today. Amen, amen. But I would bring up again that
in hearing me little more than a year ago someone in
Yet it also proves they know less than they say; for I am not God but His Chosen Servant.
Of course that was quite clearly the case with Christ even after the Resurrection, altho’ still some do only claim Jesus was God.
“according to the purpose of him who worketh all things after the counsel of His Will; to the end that we should be unto the praise of His Glory, we who had before hoped in Christ; in whom ye also, having heard the word of the truth, the gospel of your salvation”
What is it that you think all that really means ??
“having the eyes of your heart enlightened, that ye may know what is the hope of his Calling” ?? Seek fullness of knowledge.
The hope of my Calling is many things, but ye shall find them not in setting thyselves against me.
But tho’ there is hope yet to be found, you will not find it by arguing against me. So who ya gonna call ?? The Ghostbusters ain’t gonna help ya unless they wanna go up against the Holy Ghost – so get Right. Learn your duties unto the Lord thy God and glorify Him.
Be!; prayerful, and dutiful in thy prayers. Instruct and sanctify both the faithful and unfaithful in His Word and Ways. Seek reform thru’ Straightening beliefs and bringing Unity unto Faith, and so restore hope. Make amends for your failures. But don’t let disbelievers run you over, and don’t make me out to be one of them just because ye understand me not. Amen, amen.
Masks, and skins.
I was boiling some beans; and I sat upon the couch for a bit
as I waited, and turned on the TV. Five women were alone in bar, fantasizing
about a doctor; and he told one to dance, as that was the language of love –
but she was more interested in sex. At that moment a small plate fell off the
wall, and I walked over and started picking up the pieces. It was a picture of
a small stream running between the mountains; and it came to me then, that I
must not let people shatter my world. To go back to masks and skins, then, I
will add once again that some media moguls do still hound me indirectly; but I
know that much of
It is not the media, then, that presents my biggest problem.
It is people who are unwilling to give up their petty and shameful attitudes toward me and seek Right things in life.
“Locomotive Breath” ?? Well, the train slows down for those who desire to get on board – but Satan is that all-time loser, while I will be Proven the all-time winner in the course of time. If you would be a winner get on board, lest ye end up but a “snowblind friend”…
Speaking of snow, I heard something of that today which I didn’t quite like but I will have to wait and see how it plays out.
But any group of people who think they possess the Gift of Faith and are the one True fold of God are wrong, for they hold not all of His Truths. Unity of Faith is a common point between beliefs, and it is your duty to focus on that and learn the things you know not which exist as Truth among us. I am Given the keys, and am the stone, and I wear a crown of His Making – and Unity of Faith is the Hinge upon which all the doors to beliefs Rest. Open the doors, and walk from room to room, that you may realize things you have not.
Those who live in union of love with God are destined to teach, and those who learn their teachings will be led to heaven and come to know and love God the way He Knows and Loves Himself. But one degree of sanctifying grace is worth many things, and those of you who have refused to lend a degree of grace in lieu of this today have only taken away from the sum of all things. He will make it up somewhere else; but what you need worry about is what He hath Seen in you, not me – because that in free will you shared with me not even as I fought for Him. So have you been truthful and graceful, or deceitful and even brutal ??
It is said that in a man’s soul are held his memory, his will, and his intellect. Thus for one who has lived an earlier life, those things are within him waiting to be found. But most only find what is in the current life, because that they get so caught up in material things.
Yet there is more to God than even angels know. He Who Is, “Yahweh” in old Hebrew, encompasses all things throughout all time, and the life of a mere human is miniscule – not only to God, but to the time one spends in Eternity as a spirit. Life in the world, then, no matter how long or short, is but a tick of the clock in which to prove yourself worthy of a goodly life in the Hereafter.
But your soul, while you live, is a part of the Lord, as it is a part of His Creation. He Keeps Balances in our lives by Working thru’ us; but free will tosses us this way or that on the Scales of Balance, and when those get too far out of balance He Chooses a warner to bear witness and glad tidings in Remembrance whilst finding Direction and seeking to renew faith in people’s hearts and souls. It is His Way of restoring the Balance; but you know, by what is Written of Noah, that it does not always work out – and so you must know, He hath Courses and Recourses in His Plan. But growth in understanding thru’ believing accord is key to harmony of revival.
Yet still your soul, as a part of Creation, is a part of Him. That is why He is able to see your thoughts even before you do.
John 14:23… “if anyone love me, he will keep my word, and my father will love him, and we will come to him and make our abode with him”… this is True, in that your love for the Lord God, and Christ, does strengthen their connection with you… I have loved them both and so they abide in me, in the same sense that in walking toward God, He did run towards me… that is from the Qur’an…
Turn thy thoughts inward for a moment, then, as an act of faith.
Is there love in thy heart for the Lord thy God ??
Is there love in thy heart for Jesus Christ, or any other of God’s Servants ??
Is there love in thy heart even for thine ownself ??
Is there love in thy heart for neighbors or even enemies ??
“No” is not an acceptable answer for any of those questions today; but I know many said no to the last one at least.
So let me rephrase it…
Is there love in thy heart for neighbors or even enemies, given at least the Right circumstances ??
Always there should be at least a chance for love, for without that there is nothing worth living for. Amen ??
Amen, amen.
You cannot fight in grace or honor nor in the name of God if you cannot at least give thine enemies a fair shake. You owe it to yourselves, to others, and to God, to take a break from fighting and bickering and try to understand other points of view, for if none do that the only way to claim success is to prove yourself the better warrior on a blood-stained field of battle – and that is not the “good end” we are to strive for today. Ours is to seek peace thru’ enjoining beliefs in light of the spirit of Unity. But believers must not give in to atheist or polytheist views without their coming to recognize that God is Real, and is the One and Eternal Lord Supreme, Who Created the heavens and the earth – for those who deny that even still, after all this, will lead you astray. Amen, amen, amen.
Ours is a mandate to meet hardships in the fields of labor, not to sit back and count our money. Carry yourself in contribution to needy people, whatever their needs may be. That is the meaning of self-sacrifice, not that one spills his own blood whilst spilling the blood of others but that he toils as did Abel; so that his work is as fruitful to others as it is to him. That work can be in many things, whether spreading good fortune or spreading good faith; but always must it come down to serving others instead of just thine ownself.
But tho’ many things merit success, the greatest success is gained thru’ spreading good faith and bringing Unity to the faith of others.
Really it is, tho’, that religions have become complacent in their teachings and splintered to feud among themselves when the real goal is in trying to see where their Truths fit with the Truths of others – and that goal is exactly what I am about, in my Father’s Work.
I have been near ruin or death many times; and in that I know, the devil has been out to get me for longer than I even knew.
But awareness is a real eye-opener. Believe me, there are times when I just want to say, “why me, Lord ??” But I get His Answer; I am His Chosen, and this I must do if it kills me. That’s what I gotta deal with; but what would you have said or done in my place ??
Would you have stood had He Called to you, knowing many would stand against you ??
Some people, rather than see me as a lamb or a shepherd, only wanted to call me a wolf – and this was as True of some believers as it was of disbelievers. But others didn’t care who I was; they saw me as a threat and wanted to take me down. And I saw that coming, and still I did answer. When one mirrors his spirit there are things in his subconscious he sees which he could not see before.
And I figured I had no choice but to answer; for who was I to doubt the Lord ??
And who are you to doubt me, when you have no idea how He Came to me, or to Choose me ??
Of course an atheist would probably just laugh that off, and maybe even some believers would; but eventually they will choke on it.
And some have already. Some have been Sent to their graves simply because of their denial unto me. I didn’t do that, but He did.
Omnipotence; creation; providence; wisdom; order; harmony; love; sanctification; we all have some share of these.
But to whom do they belong equally ??
The Sonship has been in existence since the Creation began, since the dawn of time – at least in this universe. Genesis never said when the angels were Created, but it was quite near the beginning; when He Made the heavens and the waters, and divided the waters ??
Sweet and bitter water, remember ??
Freshwater and saltwater, remember ??
This was even True of angels, as He Gave them different traits and powers.
Never forget: the supreme purpose of existence is to show and exalt the glory of God, and even angels fail in that and suffer for it.
Also, the supreme purpose of life is to glorify God; and that ye must do in good and believing ways, the Best of which is piety.
Keep to those two things, then, as you continue to try to understand me and follow me in other things. Amen, amen.
A man’s will, and spirit, must compel him to act in faith of God – and growth in grace, thru’ knowledge, you must find. Amen.
In His discourse after the Last Supper Jesus revealed that
He would ask God (and if He were God, why would He have to ask
??) to Give “another Advocate to dwell with you forever… whom the Father
will send in my name… (to) teach you all things…”… but
how is it you will ever know that one if you are unwilling to hear new Truths
?? Some say this is nothing more than the “Holy Spirit” – and indeed, the
But He can always start it anew, without you.
Advocacy, tho’, is an essential part of the Sonship. Nature and person: if the nature of that spirit does never take bodily form, most never hear it because they are so out of tune with their hearts and engrossed with material things, indulged of the whispers of Satan.
“The Advent” ?? It was Christmas Day of 2003 that my writings took a major turn from science-fiction to religion. But today I discovered that not only is “enjoining faith in Unity” a goal of Islam and Judaism, it is also a goal of the Masonry. It is their point that throughout the years they are to strive to be faithful, to strive to sanctify the faithful, to follow the teachings of Christ among other things in search of redemption, and to instruct others in that purpose. Well, don’t be complacent in thine efforts; step up to bat, brothers.
Like I said, my father was a Shriner; but let me tell you something I have not yet said of him. He saw their good aims but felt they were holding back, going thru’ the motions but not really getting too far – so tho’ he had faith in it, he was not too happy with the results.
And so he fell along the way to a degree. But we all make mistakes; and the way I see it, it is time for their revival as well as any other.
I do realize, tho’, that Masons have long-established ties
with Catholics; but their earlier ties were with Solomon’s
None are Given more than they need at the time; and the way I see it my father did learn what he needed at the time.
But that was then, and this is now. Learn better to channel thy mind thru’ thy heart, that when things do come you may find what heart is in them and so return something of the same. I think I am deserving of my father’s place in the Lodge; but that is up to you – and I have said all I need say for any to grow as better people in good and believing ways if they but take these things to heart.
Someone asked for a common definition of “terrorism” today.
Well, my dictionary has it that “terrorism” is defined as “the use of terrorizing methods; the state of fear and submission so produced; a terroristic method of governing or of resisting a government.” That obviously needs further explanation. “Terrorizing”, then, is defined as “to fill or overcome with terror; to dominate or coerce by intimidation”; and “terror” is defined as “intense, sharp, over-mastering fear; a feeling, instance, or cause of intense fear; horror; fright.” “Panic” comes to mind, an “uncontrolled and unreasoning fear”; yet as some will try to use these things only to deny me again, I must note that in all these things an element of evil is the primary basis of concern. The only fear I brought to you was fear of God, and that is essential for any soul to carry, in order that they bring themselves to submit to His Will. It is not evil but good for their souls; but tho’ some might look at resistance itself as being an evil, it too is goodly if in its purpose it does but look to defy corruption. Resistance is Best fashioned thru’ peaceful protest, but when that avails naught there is an element of warring fashion to turn to which, if not used as one’s whole purpose of being is warranted. That again would turn me to Muhammad’s note that one cannot be an extremist; for while frightful means must at times be toted, the sharing of knowledge in hope of reform is Best – if, indeed, that knowledge is respectful unto the Lord and unto the innocent of His children.
You cannot call a man a terrorist, then, just because he is aimed against corrupt practices in hope of finding reform. You can only call him a terrorist if his aim is not for reform in seeking good and faithful ends. That certainly is not me, tho’ some in defiance say it is.
But they defy what came of a Messenger of God, and in a sense are terrorists themselves – terrorizing their ownselves and those they influence. I wonder, tho’, if any know the meaning of the June solstice in regard to His Appointed Terms, as it is coming ‘round; but this is the Proper of the Time to which you need be faithful if you hope to find progression of thy spirit and of thine understandings.
Without that people become dead in their faith and so are those who sleep in the dust of darkness. Wake up, then: many lit candles on Lent without any good thought of me; even in celebrating the Archangel Gabriel near the end of March they chose not to see he was with me, and tho’ he is honored by Catholics and revered by Muslims still he is with me. Your mission here is to find the bonds between you and entangle the differences which keep you from brotherhood; and I unlocked the door but it is upon you to turn the handle.
Always is there is a journey to find in life; but the
ultimate destination you seek should be
Yet some did only say I was flaunting this in uncaring manner, and that if I wind up on the road alone and with no-one to turn to it will prove I cared not. They are ridiculous, and such is but a part of the “war of words” against me; and if you are one of those who have set themselves against me in that war you had Best wake up and realize you should be at my side, fighting for these things even as I do. I pray you will do that today, and I hope for you to share my prayer with me; and again I pray you will see your own errors instead of trying to point out what you see as mine. But I know the Lord will allow you to ruin thine ownself if you choose to remain against me; and so if that you do, and in your own designs you ruin my good works here, on that Day I shall say that I know thee not.
I saw some people cheering in the streets as a British
helicopter went down burning in
Gimme a break, people. All things real which are made by man are only made so because that they were possibilities left thru’ His Design, and tho’ a man may have good and True beliefs, by his nature he will make mistakes and needs Divine Guidance. But nothing can ever be perfect, as none are perfect save Him – and so anything, over the course of time, can be found to need improvement. Even disbelievers can make something of themselves – yet if all you can think to do is to twist this and call me a disbeliever, you yourself are disbelieving in His Power to Speak thru’ me in these things; and so your own speech has been less than what is was Meant to be.
Bury me in denial if you will, then; but it will only come back to haunt you in His Wrath. Without grace you will find yourselves lost – and to argue with me is to throw away thy sanctifying grace; but here is another prayer I hope you will share in hope of Redemption.
Let us pray.
Dear Lord,
Lend unto the hearts of men the power to resolve their differences and better find brotherhood.
Lend unto the hearts of women the power to better influence men in good and believing ways.
Lend unto the hearts of Your True children the power to better prove themselves as peacemakers.
And Lend unto the hearts of all, Thy Mercy and Thy Grace, and the power to find it and show it in their own.
In the name of Jesus Christ,
In the name of all True and Blessed Saints,
In the name of all Thy Messengers, Prophets, and Teachers,
And thru’ Thy Many Names, and thru’ Thy Angels and Servants,
Forgive us, Lord, and so help us to find Your Many Blessings this day.
Amen, amen, amen.
Granted, not all things will come to peaceful manner in one day.
But you should know that to God time has no bounds, and a day to Him is a span of time to us. Thus if you see not His Blessings fall in but a day, do not think they will not come. Rather know that thru’ the expanse of time you must work towards them and be a part of His Miracle, if you would hope to see it – for as it is on earth, so it is in heaven. If you do not work for that miracle on the whole, neither shall He. Rather He will abandon us, and leave us to the devil to be broken, and so come in His Wrath to Serve Judgment that Day.
Believe, then, and work for the Miracle. I have been doing that and so hath He; but have you ??
Some recognized that today, and so did help me in it. I have seen that long – and it was further reflected in that I was handed a book today by a small child, even the one who did set her hand upon her heart as I comforted her in her worries of tornadoes. The book was a dictionary of terms associated with religious beliefs, which I know did not belong to her – but I needed not ask from whence it came.
It came to me even as did the Qur’an; and I shall endeavor to read thru’ it as I may, even as I have already begun to.
But git ‘er done ??
I got ‘er did, tho’ many still deny it – and they will pay for that whether they bring His Wrath or not if they keep to it.
“Do you think you can tell heaven from hell” ?? Listen to that song today and tell me: is it that I am the one you need to change, or do you realize you need always seek to reform thine ownself ?? Swimming in a fish bowl year after year requires the changing of waters.
Thus one must strive for perfection in his ownself, that he makes himself a blessing unto the world. Amen, amen.
My legs are not joined; I walk in great faith, and if I have
to walk away today it will be in faith that He shall do Right by me regardless
of what you say or do, or what comes to you, or what you see in me. It is the
way of the world to deny me; but is the way of the righteous to uphold me and
see that denial does not bring me down. That just goes back to the men of
Is yours, and are you ready to accept these things if you have not already ??
I hope so.
Otherwise your eyes and ears remained closed, you turned not to be healed, your spirit is nearly dead, and your legs are joined.
Perhaps you will realize that, if it has happened to you. Some people found nothing better today than to try to cover their tracks so that others could not see what they had said or done against me – and still they deny me, for they refuse to make amends with me in it.
But my smile is still here, knowing that He Cares and has Brought some to recognize me.
So: are you one who smiles with me in good faith ??
I hope so, and I know some do regardless of their pains.
So I will add again here today that other smiling face, because of them.
But add thine own smile this day, in honesty and faith; that in His Decision He may yet smile again with us. Amen, amen.
In case you need help in finding that smile I will leave here a country song I did write today in but another ten minutes or so.
Rare, Is The Day
============
(C)Rare, is the day, that I don’t (Fmaj)take the time to le-earn, somethin’ (C)new
And (C)rare, is the day, that I don’t (Fmaj)find some way to ta-alk, to (C)you
(Fmaj)Rare is the day, and rare is the night
And (G)rare is the time, somethin’ doesn’t turn out right
O’ (Fmaj)Lord, what would You Have me (G)do ??
O’ (Fmaj)Lord, I know Your Love is (G)True
O’ (Fmaj)Lord, O’ (G)Lord, I give my heart and soul, to(C)You
Rare, is the day, that I don’t have another battle, on my hands
And rare, is the day, that darkness doesn’t work to trouble, all the lands
But hold to the Lord, and keep Him in sight
No matter what does come, you’re bound to get it Right
O’ Lord, what would You Have me do ??
O’ Lord, I know Your Love is True
O’ Lord, O’ Lord, I give my heart and soul, to You
Rare, is the day, He doesn’t Look to Raise us up, in brotherhood
And rare, is the day, He doesn’t Hope we turn to find all, that is good
Reach for the Lord, let Him take you by the hand
Find your reform, that He Lends the Promised Land
O’ Lord, what would You Have me do ??
O’ Lord, I know Your Love is True
O’ Lord, O’ Lord, I give my heart and soul, to You
O’ Lord, O’ Lord, I give my heart and soul, to You
And rare, is the day, that I don’t take the time to le-earn, somethin’ new
Amen. Rare too is the Day He does come upon us in Decision. Don’t let His Mercy and His Grace in His Leave slip from your grasp.
Without that you will face His Wrath; but there is a way past that, if mankind but comes to believe in these things as a whole.
And as far as I’m concerned this is exactly what the Lord would Have me to do, and did Bring me to do. What will you do, tho’ ??
“No matter what does come, you’re bound to get it Right”… don’t think that this means your arguments against me are Right, for if Truly you had kept the Lord in sight you would have recognized me as His Chosen by now. But God bless, that you may yet do so.
Amen, amen.
Where do you think you would be now, tho’, if I had simply sat in some small music hall singing these songs without speaking up ??
Armageddon ??
What will you do when you find yourself persecuted as I have been for your religious beliefs ??
And what will you do when they force people to wear that mark in order to buy and sell ??
Will you travel from town to town looking for a handout ??
Will you hide out in the wilderness eating nuts and berries ??
Will you beg, borrow, and steal, to keep from wearing that mark ??
All good questions; and some I have had to answer myself in great part – for I have done most of those things already to an extent.
I just hope you will not be one to turn me away in mine own needs, after having served yours.
But here’s a verse I wrote about all that. The chord progression is a variation of A minor, a variation of G, F major, and G, repeating.
Where will you go when you’re out there
Alone on the road ?
Where will you go when you’re out there
Chased by Satan’s fold ?
What will you do if they find you ?
What will you do if they bind you ?
What will you do if they blind you from Truth
Or break you in two, when they sit on you ?
Oh…
If you find yourself there
Say a prayer
First and foremost, people, is prayer. Amen, amen. Here’s a bit more of the song, tho’. I pray thine answers to these questions is yes.
Do ya know your need ?
Do ya share good seed ?
In your life do you give ?
In your heart do you live ?
Let me give you again, tho’, what is relevant of the Day of Resurrection. The Christ, or New Being, would be refuted – just as I am being refuted today, and just as many do not recognize Jesus – and others would take power and establish a man as God; and from that would come the tribulations. Verily they will even hope you think I am that one; but if you are unwillingly overcome in that the most influential in leading you astray are those who will suffer; so don’t worry of it so much. The tribulations may seem like hell if they come, but stick to prayer and you will overcome them. I have already overcome them, whether they come or not. In Truth Satan thinks I am afraid of him and so do his minions – but they’ve got me all wrong, for they are the ones who will suffer. Lend a prayer, tho’.
Amen, amen.
I have asked His Forgiveness for many, and for any, and today I do ask of it again. But some foolishly judged me, and already they have a verdict of “guilty” against me – not seeing that the same verdict will be against them if they uphold it against me. The same judgment was brought against Jesus, people – and I am not going to ask Him to Forgive you again if you continue to persecute me.
These things you know, and so you know what it is you do. You are not the simple folk of olden days but a generation of knowledge.
Thus make amends with me as well as any other, and let not pride keep you from it. Look to the Lord and argue not against me but help me, that rather than reasoning in old beliefs thinking it will help you will see that for faith to be revived new things must be learned.
Take that time today with me, that you may find this a rare Day of Blessing. Whosoever will learn this new song will find blessings. You can write your name here not in blood but in faith, and so have a share in heaven; but if you continue against me in striving to ruin me in my work you will be doing the work of Satan and so will sign your name and soul over to him in the blood it will bring.
Know that, and share it, this day. Peace be with thee. Satan wants you to think the Lord thy God Speaks no more; or that there is no God; or that I am God; or that another who comes after me is God; but what you need see is that I am merely His Chosen Vessel.
Title grants on Route 66 ?? I’ll put my bid in here for the “House of Rock” on Scenic Byway 777; but “local carpenters union” ??
Maybe so. I’ve helped build houses
before. But tho’ I know not where I will end up in this worldly life I know
Michael Fox: I was glad to see you still on your feet today.
Some see your disease as something which robbed you of life; I see it as
something which Strengthened you and spurred you to
help others – and yet many see mine own work as but a disease, not seeing it in
same manner. I commend you again, tho’, for all thy work, for I have not only
found great joy in it but it did also help shape me as a man. May God bless thee,
that you may yet be one to find belief in me. Swear by
it, live by it, and so await the River in
Amen, amen.
“Take me to the river… on the water…”… consider that song today, in good faith… “I wanna know… won’t you tell me…”…
What will be your place today, any of you ??
And what will be your place if wicked men take me from you ??
I guess we will just have to wait and see; but have faith in me and it will be good for you. Amen, amen.
In Islam I am the one who brings new life in Balance; in Buddhism I am one Meant to recondition impermanent beliefs; in Incan legend I am the Caretaker; in Christianity I am the Comforter; in Catholicism, well, I should be at least a Cardinal; in Mormon beliefs I am Christ come again, to lead in hope, charity, and faith; in American Indian lore I am the Great White Buffalo, to say the least; and I could go on here, but is not one of these separate religions ready to receive me in Right manner ?? In Judaism I am the Messiah; but how much more must I say to have you see that all these things are one, and that thy salvation rests in belief of me ??
Good God, y’all. I am the diamond, and you are the ring. It is better to stomp grapes for wine than to keep water from the vine.
You might oughta be thinkin’ ‘bout that, ya hear ??
But “Last Will and Testimony” ??
Every man wants the finest for his children; but for mine, tho’ lawful enjoyment is a key, so too is Faith, Hope, and Charity.
This I leave, then, in case I fall or am never seen or heard from again. All possessions I leave behind shall be the Rightful inheritance of mine only child, and hers, as are to be with all worldly things owed me due to my work – with the express purpose that if she finds great worldly wealth in them she must share it as best she can with those she can find who are Truly needy. I pray believing others will help her that; but any who prey on her and hers shall find a warning here. As for any debts I might leave behind, they need be forgiven if you wish to find His Forgiveness – for if they are left as debts it will only be because of the sheer weight of denial from those who were against me, and they are the ones who will ultimately pay for it if they continue to be against me, with their very souls. As for that warning, any who seek to corrupt my children and repent not nor make proper amends for it shall have that as a heavy weight against them when comes time for their Judgment. This is clear Manifest Truth; do not be a fool. Their prosperity, and the prosperity of others who believe in me, shall be the caring dream I leave behind and is worth all the uncaring dreams in the world.
Don’t break it, then; but that said, I cannot guarantee there will even be time for all that – for it is His Decision to make, not mine.
Lend a prayer of thine own, then, in clear sight of these things as Truth – that His Decision might be one of Blessing, not Wrath.
Amen, amen.
“I’ll get by with a little help from my friends”; I could certainly use that, my friends, and your prayers would be a good start.
“Sometimes a man has to rescue a woman… and sometimes a woman has to rescue a man…”… precisely the point, my dear… no, you don’t look a thing like ol’ “Watson”… but I did mention that pipe… Sherlock ?? Well, maybe that has to do with the keys…
Yo, Tom. Love the new haircut, and I love chili peppers. As for the other you talked to, well, he’s a bit far out but I’m cool with him.
And yeah, I loved his haircut too – haha !! (Sorry, dude, I couldn’t keep myself from laughing at that joke.)
Peace be with thee, and without thee, around thee, and about thee, throughout all thy days – whether you see it that way or not.
Make amends.
Amen, amen.
